What everybody said about the difference between natural method of
healing and modern pharmacology is right on. Some Natural remedies
are spectacular for somethings, unfortunately I feel a lot of people
don't understand the separation of the two sciences. The peace love
and granola approach for this particualr case was the absolute
incorrect direction to take. But, then again I have cut myself
somewhat severely, washed it off with bleach and sutured myself with
unwaxed dental floss that I had run through the bleach, and you'll
never see that procedure in a medical text book.

Hippies. Remember in history the black plague, Tuberculosis,
syphilis, gonorrhea, etc.? All these things killed people in epidemic
proportions until the discovery of antibiotics. And all the roots and
berries were around when all of these people were dying of all these
things and they didn't seem to work for them.

Herbs and natural remedies are good for a lot of things but for acute,
emergency or care for infections they usually fail miserably. That's
why other avenues of treatment were explored for things like this. I
have one question for the brother? Where are the abscesses coming
from? My wife's tired, just look up the clinical definition and you
know what I'm asking.

Hi Swan and Woodstock....could you post this, one more time? Thank
you.

Rainbow family,

OK I am back from the emergency room. Thank you for your replys.

Long story short, I have defintely underestimated this infection.

My first infection, diagnosed as Strep, was quite disfiguring....sores
on face, neck, wrist, infected finger nails, fingers, ankles, and an
abcess in the lower calf. So when only one bump appeared on my
shoulder last week, it seemed so minor compared to what I had the
previous month.

I chose the natural antibiotic route because it would be the most
desired route of healing, and one with the least adverse side effects.
I thought it would be a good opportunity to try the natural
antibiotics, which are easily available without a prescription. The
$1,200 ER bill, and now doubled, was another reason to find an
alternative solution.

My plan was that if other sores started appearing, then I would have
sought medical help immediately.

But the lone bump abcessed and was much more painful than the first
infection. The culture will be done tomorrow as to determine what
bacteria it is. But its outward appearance was totally different from
the Strep. This stuff is real dangerous and unpredictable.
Hopefully, my 5 days of taking the natural antibiotics will help my
body fight this new infection.

So now, in the future, any sign of infection, I will go to the nearest
emergency room.

And, yes, the hippie who I thought gave me the infection, could not
have, since he was diagnosed with Staph and I with Strep. So that
means I got it elsewhere. He was relieved to find out and I realized
that doing self prevention is so much more important than finding
blame.

This is my first experience with this. I hope what I have shared and
the AGR discussion of it will help inform others.- Hide quoted text -
