Have there been any other nursing mothers who began treatment?

So many of the drugs are not made for pregnant or lactating women. We discovered my lyme's at long last during my 5th month of pregnancy so I was on one small dose of amox (it made me herx like crazy, but it didnt last long enough to help...so here I am 7 months later barely able to walk...)

I nurse my 2.5 month old son and do not want to stop. Is it going to come down to getting better vs nursing?

Not to mention with all the costs of lyme therapies, the last thing I need is formula on top of it [Frown]

Any insite would be great. thank you!
