Over the past year I have been treated by Dr. H who is great. I went from having no energy to having energy again. A lot of my symptoms improved. The twitching, swallowing, weakness in my left arm got better for a while.
Most recently my symptoms have returned. Left should weakness, swallowing difficulty, jaw weakness (all left sided).Its tough to get better to find your self sliding back down the progress latter.
My current treatment is Biaxin 1000 miligrams a day, 200 miligrams of minocycline, nistatin, and a shot of 1.2 million units of bicillian every 3-5 days (which i just started back up). I am still back at around 70% but feel i have flattened out in terms of progress. Even the damn twitching has come back again.
Dr h gave me a cyst busting abx but i am worried to take it because he said it could damamge my liver called tindamax. Anyone have bad times on Tindamax?

I took tindamax for 2/3 months and did not have a problem.

Go for the cyst buster. YOu'll NEED one eventually.
You also need to look into babesia treatment since you are at a plateau in your treatment for Lyme.

I agree. You could pulse the Tindamax 2 weeks on 2 weeks off. Also agree that Babesia treatment is important to consider. ~70% of us with Lyme likely have Babesia as well.
