Hello,
I was on IV for 8 weeks, 3 days a week and felt better. My doc tried to put me on oral Rifampin instead and I almost ended up in the hospital, I became so sick. He is putting me back on IV for a few weeks higher dose (can't afford more). Which oral abx does one go on after IV?
Oh, I also am on 500 mg Azithromycin every other day and will be starting Flagyl tomorrow.
My doc is a very smart guy but not an LLMD. There are very few people that treat Lyme in southern CA.
Please help. I'm very nervous about going off the IV.
