I am on single dose bactrim for my bart and recently my llmd increased it by 1/2 pill at night, now, I am not hungry much, read up on this drug and it can cause decreased hunger, anyone have this. Also has anyone used this drug to treat bart and how did you do?
thanks

I have heard of two people treating babs with this and they managed to get rid of it with this and artimisinin.

I have heard of others treating it for Bart too, just don't know if they got better.

I'm on Bactrim for Bart and Babs and I think it has helped me immensely. It's up there on my "top" list of meds that have given me positive results.

Everyone is different though. My brother takes it and it doesn't have the same affect on him.

hope, that is great news. I haven't taken it yet, but I just ordered some to begin after the holidays, just in case it puts me on my butt.

I plan to take bactrim, biaxin, and salt/C. I have never been treated for Bart or Babs so ?? why not give it a try as my lyme tx is stalled and not helping anymore.

I have already been on salt/C for a couple months now and am currently ramping up on biaxin now. After holidays I plan to add in bactrim.

I've read the bactrim/biaxin is a good combo for bart. Anyone have + experiences with that?

Best of luck to you hope and dian both. If it decreases my appetite, that may be a good thing for me..
