Just as a quick update:
I met with the Infectious Disease Specialist one week ago. He told me that we're going to try the medication I was on before one more time (that's typical treatment for the first "relapse") before going on to the other medication.
I can say that this medication isn't doing much again. My symptoms are mild-ish now, but they are still there. I have about 7 1/2 more days on this medication, and then I'm to see the specialist again.
If I still have symptoms, then I will be put on a 6 week course of the last-resort medication. THAT'S the one that I was talking about in my original post that I am scared of. I am actually terrified of it and I'm so discouraged that my symptoms aren't gone yet.
The specialist said that it is more likely that I will relapse for a 2nd time, since I have relapsed the first time.
Just a quick question for dragonmoon: Was your wife's case hard to cure? My case is being extremely stubborn, and I'm terrified that it won't go away. What medication did they cure her with?
Anyways, that's just my rant of the evening, of course being lead by the good ol' anxiety monster.
