  1. I also have tachycardia from Lyme I take abeta blocker for
  2. from http://doublecheckmd.com/EffectsDetail.do?dname=Zithromax&sid=1541&eid=5693 Zithromaxmay cause ventricular tachycardia (serious problem with abnormal, rapid heart rate that originates in the "ventricle"/large chamber of the heart) (rare). This drug may also cause the following symptoms that are related to ventricular tachycardia: • Irregular/abnormal heart rate. Reported with similar types of drugs • QT prolongation. Reported with similar types of drugs • Repolerization abnormalities • Torsade de pointes. Reported with similar types of drugs • Heart palpitations (rare) and Side Effects to Watch Watch closely for the following side effects and notify your physician immediately should any of these develop: •Abnormal heart rate, fluttering in the chest, weakness, faintness, dizziness or loss of consciousness (signs of a serious condition called "torsade de pointe or QT prolongation" in which irregular heartbeats occur) •Abnormal bruising or signs of bleeding such as bleeding from the gums, nose, digestive tract, vagina (females), faintness, dizziness, loss of consciousness, or rash (signs of problems with blood clot formation) could alsobe a drug interaction. I found an interaction with zith and the ingredient in mucinex,and robitussin etc
  3. Tonight at 6:30pm-7:45p Whitman Public LIbrary
  4. do you know how it works? thanks for your help
  5. I got my son into see my LLMD today. She was so great. She suggested using pleo San Strep 10 drops 1x a day. Anyone have experience with this? She explained how it worked but it was a looong appt. I cant find info online about what it does. It says ingredients are strep pyogenes diluted. It sounds scary,but I recall her saying the strep in the homeopathy is different somehow. I am not about to pour strep in his mouth i am not much into homeopathy, but open to it.
  6. thanks. he is on augmentin. just stopped zith, but hoping to put him back on zith. I will be speaking to my llmd about any other options. He has been doing great. but woke with a sore throat on sunday and he has been off since. I have a 10 month old and treated throughout my unplanned pregnancy. I chose not to breast feed because to me the risks were greater than ANY benefit for several reasons. obviously if he has babesia thats a whole new ballgame
  7. hmmm....I thought the post said a 2 1/2 hour administration... Iguess I know nothing about it so I should just be quiet! lol
  8. Dont forget that dogs can be carriers!!
  9. My son tested + for lyme (IgM) with Dr. B. This really sucks. My son is close to 100% so dr.b wasnt alarmed,but dealing with lyme for 5 years myself and knowing what its capable of makes sick to my stomach. This + result makes me suspicious that the + babesia duncani could be an accurate result. Going to recheck babesia thru Igenex. In need of cyber hugs
  10. It doesnt make much logical sense to me. I dont really know about the procedure, but my thinking is there is not a lot of subcutaneous space in humans. How would they any volume of liquid under the skin? I have heard of a lyme patient getting IM immune globulins before.
  11. congrats! My son graduated from kindergarten today was his last day. A crazy ride to say the least! He missed 32 days yikes
  12. Hi. hopefully the NIH will call you soon. They did not take long to respond. What state are you in? There is a doctor here in MA that may help. PM me for more info
  13. I was wondering how things were going. Sorry to hear not too great. You might want to get her swabbed and I would think about zith. Thats what we did when my son had a flare up and this corrected it and he is great now. If she has TBI I would avoid steroids if you can
  14. I am a bit confused by what labs were ordered...can you write exactly what the lab report says? But what I can say is there is no one test that diagnoses PANDAS. Its the whole clinical picture.
  15. I have 2 kids with PANDAS, voice change CAN be a sign of LYME. It affects the nerves sometimes. it happened to me. One of my fist sx was hoarse voice. My daughter is a mild PANDAS kid with allergies. Singulair really helped. She had her tonsils out and she still got strep 6 weeks later
  16. Dr. Rundlett Quincy MA pmme fornumber.A few PANDAS kids see him
  17. agree completely with dcmom.
  18. you might be able to find video of it on youtube?
  19. no. But hey I say if the other kid whipped the ball on purpose(not just that the kid hit the ball and it accidentally landed on him) at your son the other kid deserved it. I teach my kids to standup for themselves as well. I wouldnot have had major worry about that. That is just me though.
  20. Well augmentin for dogs is called clavamox. Pm me if you need a dose calculated. It goes by weight I would suggest a shot of bicillin. Its cheaper no pill giving, and lasts for about 7-10 days. should take care of strep
  21. congrats!! Seems to be a lot of approvals on here lately!
  22. I had my dog swabbed under anesthesia. She had no symptoms at all. I did on a hunch. Its expensive but I am glad I did it
  23. My son is 6... we were at the bus stop the other day and he picked a dandelion, he popped the flower head off and said I made a wish but they say you can't tell what it is because it wont come true. He looked around and wispered to me but I will tell you anyway.... he pulled me by the arm down to his level and looked around again to see if anyone was around he wispered...."I wished I didn't have PANDAS" he looked up at me with his twinkly hazel eyes with long lashes. I wanted to cry but in the same minute I was happy because as I told him, remember what the doctor said? I said you are much better and the doctor said you didnt have PANDAS anymore! He remembered that and he said but I think I stillhave it but only a little! My sweet sweet boy. Its so good to see him back to normal.. Kids can really teach us a thing or two. <3
  24. Well its adefinite possibility. A goodstart might be asking to give the pets a shot of bicillin?? its cheap and "SHOULD" clear up strep
