RE: Diary of a Homeopath: 24.1.18: Emergencies and Surgery

The first case was really scary. And not to mention irresponsible of whoever removed the railing (for whatever reason). If they were renovating, there should've been some form of barricade or at least an announcement that they would be removing the railing. It's very fortunate that she survived the fall. As for the last case, shouldn't there be skin testing done before any antibiotic is administered?

Sort:  

Yes indeed. She's back in the hospital today for another ct scan and possible pins to a lateral fracture in her femur. :-(

In the last case, they were treating cellulitis [which was rapid and potentially fatal] so I suppose they didn't. Also, the doctor told her her sulphur sensitivity developed as a side effect of that antibiotic. :-(
There are more problems with antibiotics than gut disruption, though that can do untold damage to the immune system, which is housed in the gut to a good extent. Side effects can lead even to onset of regressive autism in some children. I'm not sure why even I was surprised by this. Of course, they are chemicals. They can have chemical effects. We are just to habituated to taking them.

In this case, the antibiotic has lead to her nearly dying several times [per week even!] until we managed to get on top of dietary measures and some calming remedies. Not entirely sure we are anywhere near all the way yet, but she's not had an anaphylactic episode in a week or so, as far as I know.

I find it really strange that they aren't looking for alternative antubiotics for her. If it's causing that much peril weekly, then not changing the antibiotics is counterproductive. Arent they treating her so she'll live? Really, really strange. Luckily, you're there to help.

She was only on them a short while but it was a lasting side effect that’s recognised with that antibiotic, she told me.
