My point was about giving your kid antibiotics repeatedly over every little thing.


What pediatrician still does this? We have to have a fever for a week before he'll even consider it - unless it's clear its not viral.

That being said "I don't think I'd recommend for a child..." is hardly accusing somebody of a child abuser.

You went full momma bear and said it was fine if he wanted to knock on death's door, but that you wouldn't recommend that for children. Then snarked his "parent to parent" back in his face.

Right?

Antibiotics aren't used for viruses.

That's what I meant...if he knows it's not viral he may cut you a break and hook you up with antibiotics.

If he's not sure...suck it up and call me back in a week.

Well yeah - but I never accused him of child abuse.

And.....only after he recommended "avoiding antibiotics" for a toddler. Guess y'all want to heal them up with some prayin' and some apple cider vinegar?

Benzo??? What about with Cyclobenzaprine? Is that the same thing? Doc prescribed Hydrocodone and Cyclobenzaprine for my back pain. Also currently taking Hydrocodone - Chlorephener Susp. for my cough. Seems like a bad mix...


Reddy Clinic behind the McDonald's parking lot on Danielsville Hwy?

I got the same thing.... plus some steroids.


ETA- it wasn't until the pharmacist told me the order of operations for everything to avoid death that I had any idea mixing all that shite would frick me up. Doc just wrote the scripts and told me to stay in bed a few days.

Can't take all that shite together, especially with steroids.

My child has a unique issue that requires the legitimate use of antibiotics, often. It's not for sniffles. But thanks to everyone for your concern. It warms my heart.

I hope it's not anything too serious...if there is such a thing for a parent.

Kids are a roller coaster. My 6 yr old had a concussion at school that was scary. In hindsight it wasn't a big deal but that kind of stuff can rip your heart out and scare the shite out of you.

Problem now is that a concussion at 6 still counts towards your total. This for my son that is going to be 6'4, is fearless and loves to tackle his big brother during yard football. I was going to send his film to Harbaugh just so I could troll him for 12 years and have him flip to UGA on NSD - but now I don't know.

How do you diagnose a concussion for a toddler? Serious question.

Nausea, loss of consciousness, acting differently after a fall - really any hit to head that seems significant probably warrants a call to the doctor. Also, if they hit their head and don't get a knot or lump that's a bad sign too.

Problem is they're always falling down so it's hard to tell. Kids are pretty risilient though.

Cyclobenzaprine


No that's a muscle relaxer. Not the best thing in the world to mix, but typically won't cause overdose unless it's a very large amount. I defitnley wouldn't mix it with alcohol, especially since you are also using hydrocodone.

By benzo I meant benzodiazepines, which are Xanax, Klonopin, Valium etc.

I didn't mean to start a dust up. I respect everyone's right to parent the way the see fit.

I learned things the hard way. My son had a low white blood count. When he was a baby he was getting sick and ear infections all the time. Eventually the antibiotics stopped working on the infections. We had to start using stronger ones with not pleasant side effects. Not fun watching your child go through that.

We completely changed our approach and started using homeopathic remedies to boost his immune system and colloidal silver to fight infections. He went 5 years without antibiotics until a couple months ago when he brought something really nasty home from school that he couldn't shake.

Anyway, do as you will. I only thought I could help through some hard earned knowledge.

You didn't start a dust up. You brought up a legit point. And for that got called a child abusing, snake handler that rubs cider vinegar on his kid's forehead to control fevers.

That's awesome. What are some of the other remedies that have worked besides the colloidal silver?

You don't rub cider vinegar on your heads...you drink it to ward off ailments.

I was going to post something about Gaia and crystals but I actually put a lot of stock in homeopathic remedies and don't want to joke about anyone's sick kids.

That being said the colloidal silver stuff is pretty questionable. But to each their own....

Questionable according to who?

Let me guess... It's questionable according to the drug companies and the medical establishment. Right?

Because it's a financial threat to them. Because you can't put a patent on natural silver. America 2.0.1.7.

I don't buy into the notion that all physicians go into medicine so they can screw people over for a dollar. Some actually do want to make people better. I would think that small minority would have had something peer reviewed my now if there was any truth to it.

Also - the last time I checked the people pushing this weren't giving it away. They were hawking a product - with a link to the purest colloidal silver ever made mined from deep in the Peruvian alps.

Mac, are there signs of low luekos other than a blood test? In your personal experience with a toddler?

Regarding silver ions in wound treatment, that shite is real and i have seen it. Uga vet hospital uses it, their own mix in their pharmacy. They used it on Chubb and you saw how he came out vs UNC.

Who said all doctors are trying to screw people for a buck? Who said doctors or drug companies shouldn't make a profit?

Nobody did. What's wrong with you?

Some of the same exact companies that use the government levers, etc to demonize/block natural silver from competing with some of their products....... actually use it themselves. In some of their other products. To do the same things they are claiming it be ineffective for.
