You can always order a tincture of the flower but first find out which ones they were. Wish I could remember. ************** Start the year off right.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I have an herb book that I was looking at today. The entry for elecampane indicates rootstock is used. How does one prepare this for use? Also, someone had written of previously posted preparations for treating MRSA. I cannot find that post. Please re-post. I had been wondering if a preparation of honey, garlic, and elecampane as a salve might be effective against MRSA infections (topically). I guess with some of these plants we are in a situation similar to medications - both could be considered poisons that in properly measured doses have potentially curative effects.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Here's an interesting site that explains how elecampane is used. http://www.herbs2000.com/herbs/herbs_elecampane.htm This site list some serious side effects but you wanted it for tropical use anyway. http://www.pccnaturalmarkets.com/health/2083001/ Barbara In , Walter Malinowski <waltermalinowski43423@...> wrote: > > I have an herb book that I was looking at today.

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 > I read on the internet and found the same thing. Have any of you had > the same thing? > Hi, It actually sounds quite confusing. Either MRSA was grown from the swab that was taken or it wasn't. If it was grown your daughter has MRSA (always taking into account that it could have been contaminated on the way to the petrie dish) and if it wasn't grown she doesn't. The problem with having MRSA, rather than any other staph in your nose, is if the balance tips the wrong way and it causes an infection instead of staying commensal it will be difficult to find an antibiotic to treat it. So it definitely is a potential problem for anyone with a compromised immune system, especially if they have an open wound. As long as the carrier of the bacteria is healthy there isn't really a problem for themself. It could be an issue if she needs to go to hospital for any reason, because there a lot of susceptible people, who could be easily infected with it, in hospitals - so your PCP could be being a bit irresponsible in saying that she doesn't have it. The attitude would make me question whether perhaps your PCP is a carrier of the bug themselves and doesn't tell people. I was nursing when the problem with antibiotic resistance first started. We used to isolate patients who became infected with it -sometimes there would be a whole ward of people in isolation. When I worked on a ward with a lot of infected patients I managed to get infected with it - a tiny weeping sore that wouldn't heal right next to one fingernail. I was sent off work on Worker's Comp for 3 weeks - my arm was put into a splint to stop me moving it, in case it went into my blood stream, and I was told to go bushwalking and get lots of sun. The sore healed up and I had to have 3 clear nose swabs to prove that I wasn't a carrier and be cleared to work again. If you do think it important to try and get rid of the bug - and there's no way of knowing whether other people around her have it too unless you all get swabbed, (and was there a recommendation to wash the nose out with bleach as well?) - it might be important to make sure there are some more friendly bacteria around to replace it. Actually wouldn't GSE be a reasonable choice for treating it, as would all the things you are probably already doing with nutritional supplements and chelation. Gail.

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 You know, I talked to 2 other doctors today plus my sister (who is a nurse) and they all have different opinions. (I thought I would get a similar opinion from them .....) I did some more research and from talking to them, I found that (it's scary to say) that MRSA (an other Staphs) are really common in the nose. So, I don't think the doctor was being irresponsible but to play devil's advocate I will follow the allergist's suggestion and disinfect the house and ourselves for 7 days. I'm told that that is the best way to get rid of it. I also went and had myself tested. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 What kind of work does the woman do? I had it last summer May-Oct. in bone. They originally told me it wasn't MRSA, only identified it as such in my charts after the fact. I was taking OLE throughout in addition to all the different antibiotics they tried and it still took forever. They recommended surgery several times but I managed to avoid that. Hope I never get it again.

Does anyone know if there is anything that will get rid of it once and for all. My coworker's wife had recurring MRSA, she was in and out of the hospital for a year. Finally the doctors said there was nothing more they could do for her. I recommended she take OLE. After 30 days, the MRSA was gone.

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 She works at Dollar Tree and takes care of her sister who is paralyzed. She is young and has scaring from it which concerns her (I am assuming cosmetically). Last I heard her boyfriend has it now too. She is on antibiotics but am I right to assume that it is not getting rid of it completely if she keeps getting it back. Thanks for all the responses! > > My sister works with a woman who keeps getting mersa (I believe she has it for the 4th time over the past couple years).

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 my son had it and has scar from it . They say it stays dormant but can come back ! It was very hard to diagnos we had to take him to different specialists and they even wanted to do surgery on him and finally we got a second opinion from a pediatrician and thats when we found out what it was . he was given antibiotic to fight it and it finally went away but still scar remains. http://www.thenutritiongenius.com ________________________________ From: threekidsandapig <threekidsandapig@...> Sent: Fri, October 29, 2010 9:15:52 PM Subject: [ ] Re: MRSA Â She works at Dollar Tree and takes care of her sister who is paralyzed.
