Guest guest Posted March 17, 2001 Report Share Posted March 17, 2001 Listmates, I'm suspecting my 7 yr old has an ear infection, sinus infection, or maybe even strep (it's making the rounds at school and his willingness to eat is way down). Green stuff out of his nose---you know the story. It's his first real sickness in a long time. we've been doing some natural remedies this week but nothing seems to be handling it. I chose not to chelate this weekend to give his body a chance to recover. If we go to our regular pediatrician , and there's an infection, he'll prescribe an antibiotic, of course. Would vancomycin or something else being used to treat these bugs in the gut be appropriate also for this other kind of infection?(If so, I would push for that kind of antibiotic) And does anyone know whether trying to treat a sinus or ear infection while his body has other gut bugs would diminish the effectiveness of treating either problem? Thanks for the help. Dwyer ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less! Join Juno today!
