I thought they treated Bart with Levaquin or Rifamkin. I was treated with Levaquin for about 5 months and I don't think it did too much for me, my feet still hurt That was your first treatment, an IV? That is great! I hoped it helped. I wish they did that for me instead of minocycline caspsules twice a day.

IMO since you did so well on a cephalorsporin you should be on something like Ceftin or Ominicef.. I can see that he is attributing your neuro symptoms to Bart so he is trying to address that issue right now.
Just be careful with Bactrim, you should read up side effects and be aware of them when taking this abx.
