Re: Do it yourself - Antibiotic resistance lab

There's some cool stuff there ..

On the mino front the fact you get a reaction like being described

and cannot tolerate a higher dose is the hidden infection your

harbouring is reacting...There are circumstances with this drug the

infection doesn't react at all- either it is a very small infection

or it's genetics aren't resisting the drug.

I feel that some of these drugs are very good indicators of how well

your travelling- I know while doing keflex I do OK, but when I have

low levels in my system it bothers me. I'm also sort of using this

observation as a judgement of where I am with my bugs and what I

still need to do, as opposed to jumping to the conclusion the

suffering equals good health to come.
