IV antibiotics

[Guest guest]

Sandie, while IV antibiotics do less gut damage,if your grandson has

a viral infection like a cold they won't help -- they only fight

bacterial infections. Has a doctor determined that rather than a

cold he has a bacterial infection?

On the humidifier front... www.allergybuyersclub.com has many great

products. They can be wonderful but you are right, maintenance on

some is a bear.

> Thanks, no we haven't got a new humidifier this year it has just

started to get cold here. My son use to get pneumonia every time we

used one and I cleaned it daily! Maybe that was why, something in the

soap I guess. Looking back, I use to use cleaning products

religiously back then.

> Now this is his son, we used one last year and he ended up with the

RSV. So I'm a little hestitant to get another one, I always throw

them out after the season. It just seems like a mold trap to me. It's

just me I know, OCD, I guess! Which do you recoment is the safest?

> The reason they wanted to give the IV antibiodics is so they, the

little burgers the enemy (antibiotics) , did not get in his digestive

system. When he first got the cold he was running low grade fevers,

but that is normal for him. It get low grades fevers all the time,

daily! Allergies is what I been told, we continue to work on that.

With my lupus, I am use to running a little high myself. Anyhow they

wern't sure if it may be an infection and since we just started

chelation with TD-DMPS we are trying to keep him well. The drainage

has turned green and he hasn't responded as well as I would like to

the homepathic remedy for cough & colds?

> His throat is bothering him ,so maybe I will have to give him the

antibiodics, (the enemy), which scares the hec out of me! Or wait it

out and if he gets worse then the doc has closed for 10 days over the

holiday. And I don't want an ER visit at Christmas, just to have them

dose him up with the enemy, that will have to go into his digestive

system because you know the ER won't give a baby, 16 mos. IV

antibiotics...

> You see my diliema? Thanks for the advise all is appreciated since

we haven't been at this but 4 months. Thanks, Sandie
