I second the antibiotic veteran       01/07/05 09:40 AM Edit Reply Quote RnbwConnection78 Reged: 05/05/03 Posts: 137 Loc: Bensalem, PA (right outside of Philadelphia) I am someone that tried to not take antibiotics. I am completely in agreement that antibiotics at certain times are absolutely necessary. When I was in high school, I too had chronic sinusitis and was on both antibiotics and steriods. It was a miserable time in my life and I am convinced that it caused or at least contributed to my IBS. When I got older, I swore I would try to not take any more of that poison. That very decision landed me in the hospital with a kidney infection. I also tried to tough out a bacteria infection. In theory, I read that some sinus infections can clear up without the aid of antibiotics. I ended up with a high fever and sinuses that were literally closed off. I had to take very high dose antibiotics to clear it up. So while I hate the stuff, I know there are times when they are really important. -------------------- Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
