Yes family doctors can inject immunoglobulin shots. However they may just have IgG and don't know if they have IgM. IT still might help with your immune status. There may be some other new immune boosting medicines. I'm not sure for bacterial. I know they can use interferon for viruses but it won't help for TB or bacterial disease. Interferon is very expensive. I don't feel very smart since I haven't been working due to a back injury and tendonitis, knee injury, just got over a blood clot but it is gone now. etc. But it is good to share knowledge and help people on here. That is why I am here. I hope to have good health too. I appreciate your good wishes, I need them too, LOL.

What did you see the new doctor for that prescribed the Biaxin-Clarithromycin? What is he prescribing it for? Do  you know why he wants you to continue it after the other antibiotic?

Don't understand. Who wanted you to take the Biaxin-Clarithromycin? Was this a different doctor? If so what was it for? Like I said you need to get the two doctors together by telling each one what is going on and ask both how to proceed. I can't really direct you on this.
