Has anyone ever experienced this - VANCO draws out MRSA

February 18, 2010

Has anyone else had this crazy experience we have now seen twice before. We

have been on Valtrex for 60+ days and added inVancomycin and Nizoral to treat

high levels of Clostridia. After a few days we started seeing a rash on the

legs along with the appearance of a MRSA pimple. Although my grandson has had

bouts of MRSA pimples in the past they have never surfaced while on any

antibiotic. The MRSA pimple dries up quickly after being treated with tea tree

oil but it seems so strange that the rash and the MRSA have both appeared

together the last 2 times we started up again using Vancomycin. Isn't Vanco the

drug of choice to treat MRSA? Could this be die off from the Valtrex and the

Vanco together drawing out a viral rash along with the MRSA infection it maybe

trying to kill? Its important to note that following the terrible sandy

diaherra episodes, the rash goes away and the MRSA pimple dries up leaving us

with fantastic gains in all areas.

My kids have both had MRSA as well, and I never see it mentioned with autism. I

have asked many doctors that don't know much about it. I have read that MRSA

can cause bacterial menengitis, and I wonder if this could contribute to

autistic symptoms. I also wonder how many kids have MRSA and don't know it. I

would have never known if I hadn't had a sore on my son tested. I think the

nasal swabs for MRSA are ineffective. We are using the Manuka honey in my house

for strep and MRSA. I would love to see a doctor study MRSA as a possible cause

for ASD. As far as I know, Vanco is one of the few things that kills it. It

can live a long time on hard surfaces though, and I am sure you know how hard

MRSA is to get rid of. I have also wondered if MRSA can live in the stomach or

not. It would be interesting as a possible explanation for ulcers in our kids.

But I don't even know if it can survive in an intestinal tract. I wish there

was a doc that could

answer these questions. I do know that with my kids, the MRSA liked warm moist

places like under the diaper area.
