The only thing I remember seeing is that Clindamycin is sometimes used for Babesia. Is it effective against Lyme or Bartonella?

I took oral clindamycin for 5 years to treat Lyme. I understand it's bacteriostatic, not bacteriocidal.

Hi Miss TuTu, Haven't been on much lately. It's nice to know someone remembers me. I've missed everyone but I've had a lot to deal with.
Also, I've found that the older I get, it takes longer to do less. My son gave me a small towel that says "Getting old ain't for sissies." Helps to keep a sense of humor.

I've been on Clindy and quinine for 7 months (rotating every 10 days with Plaquenil and added Doxy in Dec) for Babesia and Lyme. I am getting better Nowhere near where I want to be but am definitely better.
