I would think parenteral form of doxycycline will be effective treatment for CNS or Cardiac complications of Lyme disease in such patient, alternative will be to desensitize and use parenteral ceftriaxone. Just my thought though

1ry, 2nry AV B -> cefuroxime/erythromycin or doxy
3rd AV B -> “IV” ceftriaxone or cefotaxime |
