I findly found out why i have been sick for 6 years after a near fatal reaction to an antibiotic(BACTRIM DS)
I finaaly found a doctor who has given me the correct testing to find this severe imbalance that has caused far reaching problems like :allergy to practically everthing,achey joints.dizzy ,lightheadiness ringing ears,the list goes on.
What I want to know is if homeopathy alone can balance the flora out in my intestines or do i need to do something else withit.
The stool test revealed that I had NO E.COLI at all and that I had a high level of Staph Aureus.If I don't get this balanced out I will keep getting sicker and I am at risk of colon cancer.
the treatment is to take another antibiotic to kill of the staph but my doc doesn,t want me to go this root because she doen't want to cause a candida overgrowth but most of all I am very ultra sensitive to drugs and allergic to many of them.I definitely don't want to risk another near fatal reaction myself.SO on to this herb called uva-ursi that irradicates staph and others.Also eat phsyllium seed or pectin,or oatbran everyday andtake another product(tonalbits) spelling? and don't know what it is until I call to order.
So what do any of you think of all this.I have been through hell these last 6 years and I'm just wondering if this is going to work.So many things I have tried have failed.I'm worn out, going broke.
Also does anyone know of a herbal chat room?and /or a dysbiosos chat room?
Thanks everyone for your help.I REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

From sick and tired of it all Leah
PS: Yesterday I hugged my new doctor for finding something wrong with me since for 6 years no one could find it .Today i'm just Pissed.I just pray this is the root of my sickness.I have had so many disappointments and the problem is compounded when there is something wrong with my 7 year old.I have hope for him thanks to GM+MARIE saying they have helped Tourettes.This dramatically reduces my stress over him in the mean time.
Again thank you all for your responses in other postings I have submitte
Sincerely,
Leah

Do not use a antibi cure at this stage, your too weak, that could be fatal, use homeopathy to stabilize, and get a supplement of bacterias, acidophilus, etc it is to be obtained, and lower sugar intake, cut all milk products, no yeast.

Also watch what you eat and what it is cooked in

ALUMINIUM OR NON STICK ON ALUMINIUM severly lowers immune function and is poisonous ......leads to cancer of colon too

Thank YOU GM&PAT,
GM,
I'm on a constitutional remedy called calc phos given 1x,200x on march13th and i take 2 pellets as directed everyday to keep it's action going since I have to use the nasal steroids or I can't breath through my nose at all.(then I get sinuses headahes,can't sleep etc. if I don't use this med.)My treatment as of today (I'm waiting for these product to come in the mail)is:
1}uva-ursi
2}tanalbit tannates
3}oatbran
4}pectin
5}psyllium
repeat stool test to include parasites.
Imay need to take pancreatic enzymes and they will do some breath test to(whatever that is for)GM thanks for the tips you gave me.I wander why no mention was made of this.?I know the tests say I have plenty lactobascillus+bifobacterium.so maybe that's why
they didn't order probiotics of any kind.
the comments onthe tet say:
Digestion:
ELEVATED CHYMOTRYPSIn

Absorption:
total short chain fatty acids are depressed

Metabolic:
Stool PH is ELEVATED(Alkaline)
butyrate is depressd

Immunology:
Secretory IGA below normal

Micrbiology:
high levels of staph aureus
no E-coli detected

Dybosis index:

the dybosis index is severly elevated,suggesting extreme alteration in bacterial gut ecology.The Dysbiosis index is a calculted score,based solely on gut micro,ph, short chain fatty acids and B-glucuronidase.It does not reflect parasites or such factors as digestion, absorption and immune function,any of which can influence bacterial balance.
Well I don,t know alot what this all means but if you wanted to add any comments GM I welcome them.IS this all serious or what? Is it hard to balance this out ecspecially since it's probably been going on for 6 years? Thanks again your previous reply.

Dear Pat,
Thank You about the aluminum tips .I have found your postings most informative I had thrown my pots and pans out a long time ago but I didn't know about other things you had mentioned.

Can you tell me what kind of baking sheet to use ? Do they make heavy duty stainless steel ones ,Pyrex . I have Aluminum ones I think and I always line it with parchment paper so cookies won't stick. Is the aluminum still being transferred through the paper.I suppose ther something in the parchment paper that's bad right.This can drive you crazy Got any answers for me?
Thanks so much.
Leah

In my youth, I was prescribed Bactrim by my doctor whenever I had need of an antibiotic due to an allergy to penicillan. Funnily enough, I too developed Staphloccus infections, which have continued to plague me throughout my life.

Out of interest sake, Bactrim is a sulphur drug which can cause awful side effects relating to the stomach. I often developed nausea and other problems after being on it for a week. And it would take several weeks to recover.

Best of luck with your treatment.

EVEN THROUGH Parchment ......Aluminium is like RADIATION .......if you are sensitive to this darned metal even one drop in an olympic size swimming pool will be enough to cause havoc

If you tell me all that you eat I may be able to spot something else you are not aware of

NB ......Crock pots
Electric steamers
Coffee Makers
etc all have Aluminium elements and are deadly

Drinks machines in offices use Liquid concoctions these are deadly

If its not fresh food raw or cooked in glass or stainless steel ......AVOID

Instant cofffee ......use only FREEZE DRIED ones

the list is endless

leah, have you looked into treating the bacterial overgrowth with a nosode. I have a similar problem, not with staph, but with Pseudomonas Fluorescens. It moved in after taking a yeast killer. Anyway, I am not a doctor, but you may want to inquire about the nosode for your particular bacterial problem.

Pat Davis,
I'm new to the BB but after reading previous posts you seem to be the resident expert on aluminum. Do you know of any web sites with info on this substance. My husbands father died of alzhiemers and I'm concerned for him. He doesn't listen to me but if he had something to read it may help. Thank You

There are more her pointing to lachesis, than to cp, and this use of cp i dont recomend, it will no help, it may cuase problems instead of giving help.
I would like you to use a complex of vit B containg all vit bs also 12. Take this at bedtime.
Do also take in vit d and e.
I dont think you get adquate help here.
If you had a stomach ulcer, def not cp. And the sympt point to that.
Lyc could also be a choice, but my first to cleans after bactrim is sulphur. So i cant understand why you did not get that, also may phosp be used to cleanse out after cortisone.
