Possible Lyme Cure?

I wonder what dosages were used in the study. I do know that antihistamines such as Benadryl and Claritin help alleviate symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for some people.

One of the comments to the article said ""high dosages."" So obviously they have a long way to go.

I had not known that before I received this link from a friend.

Maybe it's a start. I hope so....

Yes, that's what I am thinking. My daughter is taking it with a grain of salt though. I think she's afraid to get her hopes up.

Hi Ford,

Any med for lyme is used in very high dosages, well above the norm. I remember being on Cipro, lord, about 3500mgs a day for about 6 or so months if not longer. It takes a lot to tackle lyme and co-infections.

Let's hope something as simple will be a better cure, but of course you know big pharma will get their greedy paws on it.

No doubt FATCAT. She herxed pretty quickly on the first go-around (doxy), but she seems to be tolerating the higher dose . . . or she's suffering through it and just not telling me.

I was on Cipro last month for a UTI. For some reason it works for me on a short term basis. I can't take it IV though, my arm immediately swells up and gets red. I don't understand that kind of allergy.

It's a pretty rough antibiotic. I, too, am amazed that you were able to tolerate this level of Cipro for so long. I hope it did the trick (at least temporarily, as we all know it will only be temporary).

Take care, my friend.
