Guest guest Posted July 9, 2005 Report Share Posted July 9, 2005 Hi all, A short time ago we were talking about common staph and strepp being far more problematic than previously thought. I know that I have a lifelong history with it in varying degrees and locations and most recently, nasal and sinus inflamation with post nasal drip that is quite annoying. I started sneezing a lot, too. Well, I might have an opportunity for some labwork and I am wondering what to ask? If I recall, (couldn't find the post) they may be inclined to dismiss these as " normal flora and fauna " when I am looking for more information. I am looking for tests a Medicare-friendly duc might order. I have infection issues. The last year of chelation, Doxy-Flagyl and a few others has really improved my condition so whatever information I can request and gather - this is the time to do it. Any advice welcome. Thanks, *S* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 9, 2005 Report Share Posted July 9, 2005 You basically want your sinus bacteria described not dismissed. Most labs also have identification kits, yet only use them when they find this bacteria in your blood.you virtually don't want theories, just what's observed, if they dismiss things, " anything, " you want to be INFORMED.Also you want to know if there's a mild growth or heavy growth. Basically most bacteria that are resident somewhere on your anatomy are also causing ill health all over the hospital systems of the world.What the key is is antibiotioc sensitivity which gives you a tip your bacteria is fighting back and is bad. > Hi all, > A short time ago we were talking about common staph and strepp being > far more problematic than previously thought. > I know that I have a lifelong history with it in varying degrees and > locations and most recently, nasal and sinus inflamation with post > nasal drip that is quite annoying.
