Let me first say....if you search Bicillin, I do think you'll find some people who have seen improvement with it.
That being said, I did Bicillin injections 3 x weekly (1 x weekly seems a low dosage to me) for 5 months, slight improvement, at best. The Bicillin was after 2.5 years of numerous, multiple orals targeting Lyme and all co's, including anti-malarial tx for babs.
I am now 5 months into IV Rocephin, and unfortunately, same deal, only slight improvement so far. My symptoms are completely neurological. I see a new LLMD in a couple of weeks for input on my treatment protocol. Good luck. TS

I still have Lyme, difficulty with co-infections, but I have to say - I have been on bicillin shots a couple of times over the years.
No, It didn't cure me, but it did make me feel a heck of alot better for a while, and that's a big plus.
Everyone's body and infection is different but I would say, give it a try. My daughter got some relief from it also.
