Treatment: Metronidazole, aka Flagyl

Metronidazole, also known as Flagyl, is an antibiotic that attacks the spirochetes.

Joyce began getting this antibiotic 3 times a day, for a week straight, 8 hours apart: 8:30am, 4pm and 12am. Then she was given a week off and another week on of this. The nurses at Lyme Mexico came to our condo to administer these treatments to Joyce after hours.
