I remain patient with a certain level of misinformation or ignorance by some posters who embrace wrong narratives. Myths abound.
Maybe it's just my own perception, but I do not sense in some patients a willingness to learn, to have an open mind. Prefer myths.
I'm not going to get into it. Just to say that you could not be more wrong about resistance. If you want a detailed scientific explanation of that, let me know. Otherwise, I aint wasting my time with closed minded skeptics. I will spend endless time with open minds who want to learn and get better.
I will tell you this short story. I was not on antibiotics. I relapsed super bad. Probably worse than anything you've ever experienced, unless you've had Parkinson's, schizophrenia, depression, panic attacks, and a torso covered with red spots all at the same time before. If you have, then you can relate.
I restarted them, the antibiotics,. Today is day 3. The horrible anxiety and depression is 90% gone already. Where is this resistance you talk about? I've taken these same antibiotics multiple times, sometimes for months. No resistance. They save my life. Probably would save a lot of people here too, if not for closed minds.
Let me bust one myth here. Antibiotics DO NOT develop resistance when they are used PROPERLY. What does that mean? It means you NEVER take just one at a time. A second or third one, of a different mechanism, makes it impossible for the germs to develop resistance. They can't adjust to the different mechanisms simultaneously. The biggest mistake American medicine has made in the arena of antibiotics is prescribing them as mono therapy. That is bad and that does lead to resistance.
I'm on Doxy and Rifampin. This combination does not develop resistance even 9 months later. It has already erased an impossible treatment resistant depression in just 3 days.
The thing is, my journey is not at all unusual. There are millions of patients with stories exactly like, or very similar, to mine. I propose that many of them are right here at babble.> Just making one resistant to antibiotics if really need them. What then?
