Dr S's Tripple Abx Regime for CoNS (Rifampin, Bactrim, Bactroban)

January 23, 2004

Hi

Yes, I tested +2 on the staph and I have an obvious infection in my sinus, and

was resistant to 3 or 4 antibiotics (all the ones I have ever taken it looked

like). I did not get Staph Phage Lysate also

There seems to be somewhat of a protocol because several people have mentioned

taking Rifampin, bactroban and bactrim, and that is why my doctor prescribed too

(although I had to sub for the bactrim because I am allergic). I just am

concerned because a) I only got 5 days and 10 days of the antibiotics and I am

concerned that stopping at that will cause resistance, and many things I read

talked about taking CSM (cholestyramine)and opinions seemed to differ on the

importance of this. Recent articles also seemed to talk about MSH and I wasn't

tested for that.

Thanks

Doris

Hi, Doris,

I have read everything I could find on Dr. Shoemaker's work. (I may

have missed something). I don't recall any particular protocol being

anywhere. I think this is because he treats very individually.

Your particular protocol depended on the antibiotics that the CoNS

were resistant to and the type of infection you have and probably

your genetic profile and other test results.

Did you test positive for staph in the nasal passage? Did he give

you the Staph Phage Lysate also? Have you seen him in person? If

so, you can call him and voice your concerns. This would be the best

way to get individualized treatment.

You might also post your question on the StealthVirus support

group. He often responds to questions there. And many members have

seen him and may be on a protocol.
