Comment:
I was prescribed this to treat walking pneumonia. It seems to have worked, but I am suffering severe shoulder and neck pain, which started less than halfway through my 14 day treatment. I have also had a headache for 3 days now. At this point I am hoping the side effects dissipate quickly now that I'm off of it, because I am miserable!

Comment:
I am taking this because I was diagnosed with Lyme Disease. I am convinced it was mainly to treat the rash/bite itself because I still feel sluggish due to my condition. This medication works but be knowledgeable that it works mainly for the rash not the actual disease.
