I have been on Ceftin for two weeks, and ever since I have been blocked up (constipated). I'm also taking Nystatin...I've tried Activia, Miralax, Magnesium Oxide, and nothing has worked. Does anyone know if Ceftin can causes this symptom?
Also, this is the only abx my LLMD has me taking, but he prescribed me others if this one doesn't work. I've read on some threads, that I should be taking abx to fight all three forms of Borellia? Does that mean three abx at one time?

yes, it means 3 at once. When I was on Ceftin, I took it with Azithromycin and pulsed flagyl.

Yes, I would agree... it also depends on how far along you are into treatment. If you have just started, they don't always add in Flagyl right away. Within 2 months I would think you should be on all three.
Ceftin and Flagyl are good together, and adding in a Macrolide like Zith or Biaxin should work well together.
