Another Medication to add to the Mix

November 20th, 2008

A couple of days I went to the doctor I am on an antibiotic.  I hate going to the doctor for medications like I need another medication. So I started my 10 days of taking antibiotic yesterday. I hate medications, but where would we be without them. I will be glad when I am finished with the antibiotic. I have had a really rough week spent a lot of time laying down because of a flare. Its days like this when I really appreciate my lap top computer. I have my feet up which is something I have to do most of the time. Happy Thursday to Everyone. :)

    Hey Chronic Chick:

    Just curious. Does your doctor ever recommend any kind of food or supplementation to restore probiotic or prebiotic function in the gut? That can be important as antibiotics can wreak havoc on beneficial bacteria in the gut, which is important in maintaining immune health. Intestinal tract bacteria is responsible for 70 percent or so of the body’s immune system performance.

    I’d be interested if there is anything to share from your world on that topic.

    All the best and continued courage.

    I was going to say the same thing. Make sure you have some good bacteria such as Inner Health or even good quality yoghurt, or you are at risk of thrush and other bad things.
