Been Sick, Need Antibiotics… again.
Posted by zach in health, tags: sliding scale clinic., strep throat
Apparently I’ve got this resistant strain of strep. It keeps on resurfacing the moment I do anything, that compromises my immune system. Even if have a single beer, or miss an hour of sleep, I could eat a doughnut, or drive 5 miles over the speed limit. Then this horrible beast, this wolf in sheep’s clothing, this crocodile lying in wait, surfaces from my spinal column and drags my unsuspecting tonsils down, to drown in the murky depths of tonsil puss and inflamation.
Gross huh?
Try having strep throat 8 times in 10 months. I’m on antibiotics more often then I’m off antibiotics.
Several times, I take the pills, the sore throat goes away, I finish the course, then two days later BAM, I have strep again.
I’m like one of those factory farmed cows, that eat antibiotics with every meal. The only things I’m missing is being fed ground up dead humans, and living in my own poo.
Heading to the sliding scale clinic later, to get the latest in kidney/liver destroying antibiotics later.
Wish me luck!

Well shoot, and you thought us non raw foodists were in poor health!!! Just kidding, but I really never get sick. I guess my body is used to all the nastiness.
I hope you start feeling better soon.
Bet you could fit a lot in that mouth
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Zach - i didn’t know you had this. I was a strep carrier all through my 20s. I got strep almost every year from age 20 through 30. I was the exact same way - if I lacked sleep, got a chill, partied too hard, WHATEVER — the strep was just waiting to come back up.
I’m not sure exactly what I did to finally get rid of it… but I also had a breath issue that I think was connected to all the bacteria. Some say the strep lives in the sinuses, and so whenever one has nasal drip into the throat, the infection takes hold again. I went to a naturopath and he put me on a candida-killing diet, which meant no sugar or naturally sugared foods (except apples, which have an ok kind of sugar). I took dried garlic powder capsules (you can’t do the odorless ones). I can tell you more in person. Oregano oil capsules helps get into the sinuses and kill bacteria.
I love the smell and taste of Oregano when added in some recipes.-”;
