Can I Take Intravenous Antibiotics For Lyme Disease When Having Multiple Scelrosis?
I have Lyme disease and have been on antibiotic for 2 months. I am starting to feel better. My Dr wants me to go on intravenous antibiotics. I don t want to because I also has Multiple Scelrosis and afraid of adverse side effects. What should I do? I m thinking of another month of pill antibiotics.
