It doesn't sound to me as though you are in an fit state to take oral antibiotics, so why not for the moment, start taking NAC, 600mg a day to start with, until your condition improves a bit. You don't want to end up with liver or kidney failure as well as everything else. NAC is hepatoprotective..........Sarah

Sarah,

Check back with the Vets and MS thread in the general forum. I posted some new research about MS and bacterial infections.
