A member asked:

Still waiting for lyme disease blood test results. if it is positive will i need antibiotics from an iv since i am having neurological symptoms?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Often: It really depends on the specific neurologic symptoms but often IV Rocephin (ceftriaxone) is needed as oral antibiotics do not cross the blood-brain barrier.
