Roller aoster central, but great news!

[Guest guest]

Hi all--

Wanted to post good news since I am always on here moaning about how I can't

take it any more.

We just saw LLMD this afternoon and he said Child #2 on the brink of being

well! Child #1 is " not as sick as she feels, " meaning, babs and bart are

fighting for her and fighing her, but they are on the brink of being beaten

too. So she is out of school until January, at her request, and we'll just see

what happens after that. She may stay out until next year or go back, depending

on what she wants to do.

Phew! Could it be that the nightmare of the last 13 years is about to end?

Wanted to share this exciting development as it has been a totally unfun ride

and I am very excited at the prospect of normalcy.

Cheers

Natasha

Subject: Re: [ ] Experience with Rifampin

Hi,

My son has ben on rifampin for over a year now(age 9)

He was taking it like you metioned, two hours after a meal or an hour before,

than his doctor said to just give it to him with his breakfast in the morning

and at bedtime.

He hasn't had any problems, except some occasional watery diarrhea with it.

Take care

Judy

Subject: [ ] Experience with Rifampin

Hello Everyone,

I was wondering if I could ask if anyone has experience with Rifampin. I know

this is a group to discuss our children but many of us Moms are also dealing

with Lyme. My doctor wants to switch me to Rifampin half dose for a month and

increase to full dose after the 1st month. Wondering what to expect and how in

the world am I going to fit in my supplements when I have to take this 2 hrs

after dinner plus Minocycline at Breakfast and Dinner.
