Jo,? doxycycline is indeed a common antibiotic used to successfully treat MRSA
if your strain is sensitive to that drug.? I'm not sure what Carrie is speaking
of.? My strain was very resistant, but was sensitive to Doxy.? Just remember
that you need to replace the good bacteria in your digestive tract that the
antibiotic is killing off, so eat yogurt with active cultures or take
probiotics.?

Hi Jo,
You may always worry about giving it to someone. I do. However, rest assured
that this is a very common bacteria in our community now. It is even possible
that your Grandson carried the bacteria to you. Not everyone that carries it
will get infected.
Dicloxycilian is not a very good antibiotic (ABx) for MRSA. You should
immediately seek the advice of a good Infectious Disease Doctor.
Also, please take some time to read over my website: www.MRSAsupportgroup.com.
There is alot of info there including natural treatments and preventatives. Any
time my kids get a scrape or cut, we put Allimed on it. We also take it orally.
Me & my baby girl recovered with little to no ABx. Our story is on my website.
Most natural products can be used at the same time as ABx.

I didn't know If I should even touch him. I felt like a gaint cootie. I scrubed
my hands and dabbed it with alcohol, after I dabbed the alcohol I went to blow
on it and thought maybe it's in my breath. I thru a bandaid on it. I'm afraid
to touch him, or anyone else. I couldn't live with myself if I gave this to
someone. Will this germ be on and in me forever? I'm on doxycycl, and Mupirocin
for my nose. Can I touch people without worring?
