Guest guest Posted July 11, 2003 Report Share Posted July 11, 2003 Hey Kathy and and anyone else doing the antibiotic therapy, could you help me? I received this letter from a friend, who I will keep anonymous, and she clearly could use some direction or advice or just hear of your experiences on the antibiotic therapy. Since I've never done it, I wouldn't know what to tell her, and she does want to hear from others. She is a part of our group, but has been a lurker, and I will respect that, but if you have any advice to share with her about the pain issues and antibiotics, I know she is anxious to hear from you.
