Just curious. Has anyone had to be taken out of work, short time, to recoop from a bad herx while on ABX? I'm just wondering if their short-term disability at work will pay them. Anyone? Thanks!

Short-term disability depends on your employers' specific policy. The best information you will get is what type of illnesses other people have received short-term disability for.

Go to your HR dept and ask them what your short term disability benefits are.

I was out on short term first with 'migraines' then with lyme. and now long term cause of lyme and the many things that go with it.
