Re: (Antibiotics) Regarding lymph infection in a four year old

[Guest guest]

Does anybody else feel the same way about Medical Doctors and

antibiotics? Do you believe that antibiotics should NEVER be used,

because there are so many superior options, or do you believe that

sometimes antibiotics can be good? Should I treat my four-year old

daughter naturally, or should I pull out the " big guns " ?

Your thoughts are appreciated,

Sandy
