I've now done 4 rounds of Bicillin injections and they are really helping. I'm noticing my symptoms decreasing and having moments where I am symptom free! My only obstacle right now is following the protocol 100% making sure I have the right foods to eat and take my meds when I'm supposed to.

Is this the bicillin which causes pain when you inject in muscle? I would be interested in the dosage you take and if you also take a cyst buster.

thank you so much for your warm, supportive words. It means so much. The dose is the typical dose for lyme pts...sorry I don't know the exact dose and my lyme fatigue won't let me go look right now...yes, it goes right into my butt which happens to be quite cushy in the moment...
the key is to make sure the nurse injects very very slowly and you massage the area for 2 minutes afterwards and use a warm compress each time afterwards. Slightly painful...but no lastly problems at all...SOOOOOO much less painful than lyme symptoms...go for it!
