Has anyone tried this drug combo? It is for Bartonella/lyme:

600 mg Rpfampin -Monday-Friday
600 mg Azithromycin- Saturday and Sunday
200 mg Doxycycline - everyday

Does it seem like a good plan?

Severe neurological problems. Probably sick for years. Became chronically sick in Aug 2007. Undiagnosed for another 15 months. Started treatment for lyme and bart Sept. 2008. Improving, but very slowly.

Zith + Rifampin knocked the Bart out of both my daughters.

Patience is the key. My girls did not herx or appear to have any changes at first. But then after a few weeks, it kicked in and they improved by leaps and bounds.

A great combo!
