Guest guest Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Hi everyone Everyone in my house is sick with a bad cold right now and I have to go in for surgery on friday so I can not wind up with this cold! We went to the drugstore tonight to find out if there was something I could take. Well she recommended starting to take echinacea right away (we told her what I was on and she said it was still okay to take it). I get home and started doing some work on the computer and went to check if my dad could take the pills too as he has a hard time finding cold pills because he has angina and glaucoma. I found this: Who should not take echinacea? Echinacea is not recommended for use by people with multiple sclerosis, white blood cell disorders, collagen disorders, HIV/AIDS, autoimmune disorders, or tuberculosis. Now this is going to sound stupid but is EDS considered a collagen disorder or just a defect? The pharmasist looked it up when we called to ask about it and found the not taking it with collagen disorders but no mention of EDS anywhere. Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks in advance Stacey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
