Treatment with PICC Line

Hello,
I am considering abx treatment through a PICC Line. Has anyone done this treatment and if so, has it been helpful? My doc has me on oral abx, but I am not seeing improvements. I have tried many different treatments in the past with the exception of aggressive abx treatment. Thanks!

I haven't had a PICC line, but someone I know has, and had good results, but I don't know anything more than that. Someone else might have more data for you.
