My LLMD mentioned he is having good results with Namenda for improving cognition etc in his very neuro patients. Has anyone tried this or other meds with good results?

I haven't tried it, but I am interested in hearing more, esp if anyone has tried it.
My neuro, who used to be LL, and now isn't, rx'd it for me recently to help with inflammation---because he doesn't want
me on rocephin and other abx, because he thinks I have "Post-Lyme Autoimmune Disease!" Of course, I will continue to do abx. But it does have anti-inflammatory action, and helps with cytokeines, etc.
Also, my migraine neurologist uses it for people with migraines.
However, I am reluctant to add any more med in unless absolutely necessary, as I'm already on an awful lot.
Let me know what you find out or what your experience is.

Rumi--what do you mean he used to be LL, and now isn't? Is he now of the camp where symptoms are "autoimmune" if they don't go away after a certain amount of time?
