Hi! Bob:

    Yes!
    I do!
      But, there is no way for me to tell that this did not cause or has the
potential to cause permanent damage in the long run.  The nervous system
function is a cooperative one.  Even during development, if the neurons  do
not make the right connections, they undergo apoptosis or physiological cell
death.  So if for some reason, the neurons begin to die, this behaviour may
result in a domino effect on other neurons, which might contribute to the
slow prgression of the disease in the long run.  I do not know if this
process will be accelerated because of some antibiotics.
