I have read all of the posts on the forum regarding the use of Ceftriaxone and Rocephin and want to share what I have found (below) as well as ask about others' experiences. Has anyone tried Ceftriaxone/ Rocephin who has had a positive or negative experience which they would like to share? Tips about what worked or didn't? Would you recommend it? I have been diagnosed with both CFS and Lyme and been prescribed IV Ceftriaxone for the Lyme.
My analysis of forum user experiences does not suggest it is very helpful, but perhaps my understanding is incomplete. Happy to learn more.
Through the forums, I identified a total of 30 people who seemed to have tried Ceftriaxone. Of these:
0 (0%) were in complete remission from Lyme/CFS
2 (12%) reported stable improvement, though still sick and trying other options
4 (24%) reported temporary improvements that went away
11 (65%) reported no improvement or negative experiences
17 people provided some information on efficacy, 13 people did not
5 (45%) reported extreme side effects (see thread for examples)
2 (18%) reported strong side effects
1 (9%) reported mild side effects
3 (27%) reported no side effects
11 people provided side effects information, 19 people did not
