Hi, Saliha. Have you tried dietary things, eating raw food, avoiding

dairy and wheat, etc.? Lots of greens and juicing? June

As far as antibiotics and pregnancy go, I'd trust talking to a pharmacist over

any MD. I'd start there.

Best wishes to you, Saliha.

Hi!

Hope you have a healthy happy baby!

As for taking antibiotics when you are preg.most people go into remission.

If you are one of the few that doesn't you can take erythromycin with no

problem. You can also take it when breast feeding. There are a few expreg

people here (I guess they are out running after the baby now) and I was

hoping they would talk to you.they would have more experience antibiotics.

Here is a web site that may help

http://rheumatic.org/support.htm

also the histories page may have reports from people preg on antibiotics

wwwrheumatic.org/medhist

www.rheumatic.org

I'm not sure of the dosage but you may be able to find it on one of these

pages.

The roadback should also have info on this

http://roadback.org/

Hope you are doing better by now and don't give up on the antibiotics.they

work!!
