Hello,
I am a new member and I am 17 years old. I've been battling MRSA for
over a year now and have tried numerous medications. However, the
ones that are the most effective make me very ill and the ones I can
tolerate don't effectively kill the MRSA. They have given my the
chlorohexadine wash and I've been putting muciprocin in my nose and
nails. I have followed everything I've been told to do. Wondering if
anyone has tried any natural cures or has any suggestions about what
medications they have taken or what helped.

Thanks,
Heather
