Guest guest Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 When Danny had pink eye a couple of months ago, the doc put him on antibiotics..cleared it up for a couple of days, then it came back in both eyes worse than ever. The doc ordered a different antibiotic (which I used) but I also used something called ‘Stygiene’ 4 times a day..and I think that it helped more than the antibiotic did. http://contactlenssource.com/steycl.html I found this page after Danny’s eyes were all better: http://www.health911.com/remedies/rem_conju.htm I also saw this a couple of weeks ago: Antibiotics Unnecessary for Management of Conjunctivitis http://www.aafp.org/afp/20060315/tips/7.html kathyR(mom to Danny, 8 yrs old and his 6 older sibs) From: Down Syndrome Treatment [mailto:Down Syndrome Treatment ] On Behalf Of Pamela Sent: Sunday, August 06, 2006 5:56 PM Down Syndrome Treatment Subject: Re: Infected eye going on day 3!

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 We have never had a case of pink eye spread at our house either, and we have 7 kids. There must be different strains??? Antibioitics only made her eye more irritated and as soon as we stopped, it was back. Keep up with the milk for at least 24 hours after the eye looks fine, or it can come back.

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Don't forget to wash pillow cases, etc and not to share towels! It does spread if everyone is not careful. Sounds like a few of you have been lucky but it does spread....even with proper hand washing. It all depends on how bad the infection. How are the eyes today????
