I;m into my second week of IV ROC.the first week I pushed 1g,,7 days.I had no sideeffects,good or bad.Day 8 I was pushing 2gx7days.The very first day on 2g's,,I got very fatigued and very weak,hands shake,,but mostly extreme tiredness.
So I guess I'm wondering if this is the Rocephin working,,or sympthoms progressing?

Hi,
I was on IV ROC for two weeks and seemed to be doing pretty well. My body pain was 80% better.
Four days on and three days off 2Mg twice a day.
Then I started Flagyl and my liver enym went right up,so they took me off all abx. I felt like hell and my body pain and brain fog came back.

Yesterday I stared by on IV ROC and slept most of the day.Also, lots of sweating and chills.
I feel and hear pounding in my head and ears,also,have slight headache. But my body pain is 80% better.

I don't know what all this means,but I do feel confident with my LLMD.
Hope that helps you alittle bit.
Atheana

Dear beatlyme,
I am glad your feeling better.

The funny thing is I feel like crap. I have been back on Roc for 4days now.

Today I got a horrible panic attack and had to take a valium. Also,I have pain in my buttocks that radiates down my legs,and feel like jelly.

My throat is sore and I feel dizzy.

I have been on Lunesta to help me sleep,so it could be that.


Today I go off of the IV for 3 days, I sure am looking for it.

Take care.
Atheana
