so i'll be ok...right?
i was on it for 10 days. to morrow i'm supposed to switch to clairith and quinine...
i wonder if i should stop the protocol and do doxy or tetra...or stay on the biaxin a little longer.

So sorry, lpk. It sounds to me like your bases are covered. However, I would ask my LLMD what he thinks. I'm glad you found them. For every one I find I wonder how many I didn't find!! GRRRR!!

Do ticks serve any useful purpose in the ecosystem? One animal I'd like to see extinct!

I had a second bite I thought while treating. My LLMD said the Biaxin covered it. I was also on a malaria Rx and Amoxy at the time.

Amoxy is often used instead of doxy for a new bite .... so with the biaxin/amoxy combo, you were covered, though doxy covers a more coinfections that your combo misses.

Clarith. is the same as Biaxin. Plaquenil is good to be taken with it because it helps the Biaxin to work better.

thanks betty-yeah there is a lot going on right now...but for two days i haven't wanted coffee!!! green tea with lemon and honey is all i want and i've lost 7 lbs in the last 10 days so it isn't all bad.
i don't feel all that bad right now...but i am a little scared about the future.
i'm meditating more....
