Mepron & Zith Combo with Ceftin

Hey All...

It's been a while. thought I'd come back and post a quick Question regarding Meds. My Wife has been on the Zith & Mepron Combo. She has regained some strength and physical ability. Not quite cured, in fact far from it. The MD has just added Ceftin (Cefdinir) 2X/Day to the regimen. And wouldnt you know it, all the little tricks & Herx and Symptoms are all flaring up again. we're told to expect a spike. has anyone experienced the same, or different? Can anyone please comment on their experience with this Ceftin?... Thx, RMV

Hello Ticker

Jennifer has been on the Mepron & Zith(250mg - 2x/day) for approx 2 months. We were advised that the Babesiosis was to be treated and THEN cater to the Lyme. So your information is accurate. She just started the Ceftin (300mg -2x/day) and boy is she feeling flares. She does keep a journal, and she does rate from 1 - 10. All seem o be on course, just a little scary going through it.

Our two Daughters (13 and 8) have also tested positive IgM. We caught them very early. The ID MD had put them on Doxy for 30 days. We now wait for the next several days to see if/when the symptoms fade. We planned a visit with my wife's Specialist for late Feb. Hopefully, it works out. Our fear is that the Doxy treatment wont suffice. Symptoms are crazy. Headaches, Tummy Aches, Eratic behavior, moodiness, very emotional, irritable, some hair thinning etc... God has a plan for us, and we're behaving until it all plays out.
