Just a little'by the way' on the above post. The 'Lab' that I have posted is Great Plains Laboratory.
What has happened is that the Lab tests with a Urine test and a Stool test to determine which antibiotics will react correctly in your own body.What we have found in going through the process online here is that there are variables in each persons makeup.
For a while it was so disheartening as to know what should happen and how to help,for those who could not take Bactrim. We have been blessed with the testing so that those that cannot take Bactrim can see according to the test what suits their own makeup.
The tests do not have Bactrim on them,however they do test for: Amoxicillin R Ampicillin R Augmentin R Ciprofloxacin S Trimeth-sulfa What the testing also tests for is (what bacterias,fungus etc is growing)and which of the antibiotics anti fungals ,natural remedies,etc. will work for you.
Hope this helps. Pam |
