Wow! What a difference this drug has made for me!!! Undiagnosed bartonella, and now with the help of Rifampin, I am kicking the #$%@ out of the mother loving bartonella!! What a miracle drug for me!!!
It has been five days for me, and they say that the first week is pretty bad. Well, I've been waiting over two years for this moment, so I am going to hang in there for dear life; I have decided that now is the time to be aggressive, and go for it!!
Anybody else out there enjoying success with this drug? I hope so, and I hope that you might share your success stories with me! Optimism and hope are wonderful things, especially when shared with others. :-)

Are you combining it with any other meds? They say it works best when combined with something like Doxy or Zith. I've been on it for 3 months and have noticed an improvement but not done yet. Im adding in Flagyl and Minocycline to kick it to the curb!...I hope!

I'm on rifampin and yesterday made a month. I'm not even on high dose, my llmd cut my doxy. I've had physical pain since I started big time but this is too much at this point mental,emotional. Ow would I know it's working? Sleep is screwed up, thinking more so, not myself at all inside, dperonalzation. Need I go on? 2 strains Bart positive. ? How would you know. Also late or menstrual cycle if your female, this s nuts. My dad died a short time ago, I'm a mental mess. How long would u say to see if it's working. 300 rif, 100 doxy. Good luck and feel good.
