It looks good for the Lyme .... here's what Dr. B's guidelines say about treating bart:

quote:
In the co-infected Lyme patient, eradication may be difficult. Many
antibiotic agents have been reported to be effective, including
cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones, erythromycins, gentamicin, rifampin and
streptomycin. In practice, these patients seem to do best with a combination
regimen that utilizes agents that can penetrate cells. Typical combinations
include an erythromycin, plus a fluoroquinolone or rifampin. Treatment
progress is most commonly assessed by PCR post treatment and serial titers.

paul-

i was on levaquin for 3 months and made huge gains on it. it was unreal. since then though, i have relapsed to baseline which is discouraging.

be careful with the quinolones, they can cause some damage, i am unsure if they did for me yet or not.

your protocol seems to be sufficient for now, id give it a little while and see how it goes.

it really depends on how sick you are. are you able to work? are you functioning?

best
