What do you guys think of this combo? Rifampin is added because it is effective for bartonella, doxy hits bartonella too and also Lyme, and tinidizole to open cysts. Has anyone used this combo? Any thoughts?

Yes, I used it from December until April, when the sun became too strong for me to be on doxy. I had no ill effects and made a lot of progress.

I was on Rifampin with Doxy for just 6 weeks but had to stop for summer and made moderate progress after the biggest herx ever, lasted weeks and even had to back down to a lower dose and still made progress.

I have not tried that combo, but after 18 months of different combos of doxy, zith, biaxin, flagyl, and levaquin, I finally did 6 months of tinidazole and cipro, which really did the trick for my LD and bart.

I have been off abxs for 1 year now and still feel pretty good.
