Dear Ivan,
I know CS is effective against most things but I found 5 years ago when
2
months pregnant with araging tooth abcess and strep throat that it was
useless
against the agonizing sore throat, and I had to resort to e-mycin. At
the
time I blamed not having enough CS as I could not afford to buy more than a 3
ounce bottle that was almost 30 bucks! This was a sore throat from
hell,
one could tell it was different from a normal sore thoat right
away.
It was the first time I had had strep since I was 5 years old, nearly 40
years. I was dissappointed in the results of CS then but later
learned that CS has a possible shelf life and decided I must have bought an
older low potent batch. I also as I said blamed the amount used.
But recently a friend of mine on this list wrote me offlist to tell me
she
and her son had been ill with strep throat and CS had been ineffective and
they
had to go to regular antibiotics. In her case as she is one of us and
makes her own I think, I can't blame quality or amount of CS. But it
bothers me that their may be strains of strep that are resistant to CS for
whatever reason as it is strains of strep that morph into the flesh eater
among
other things. But since it was theorized my horse that died
had strep in the flesh eater form, he had no living evidence in him at post
mortum and I had been injecting him with 30 ccs a day of CS 3 days prior to
his
being put down. So in theory the CS killed all pathogens in his
body??? So why does CS seem to be useless against strep
throat???? Any ideas?
