Reoccuring mrsa for almost 6 years now

Posted By Samantha (Somewhere, Someplace) on 05/09/2011

i have had reoccuring mrsa for almost 6 years now with small breaks here and there. It all started wen I had my son in july of 2005 and afterwards they could not release me without runnig antibiotics thrugh my system because my white blood cell count was too high and I had a fever, they ended up letting me go early even though my white blood cells where not quite where they would like them to be.. two weeks later my toe swelled and I though I had just stumped it but to my suprise it kept swellin and became more painful then one day afer being out all day in pain I came home to find that my toe had exploded a hole in the side of it a hole the size of a cigarette and decided to tell the docter.. He did a culture and told me I had CELLULITUS so for no less than 1 year at least 2 times a month I went back with more boils and was treated for cellulitus with regular antibiotics and pain meds...

It was not unil I moved and got a new boil I went to the hospital and they did 2 cultures and told me I had MRSA and gave me bactrim (which needless to say never worked) it would only make it go dormant for a little while.. Eventually my son got it and I got access to the internet and have been doing reserch since.. Ive found that my garlic ginger onion tincture along with ecenacia works well but is not quite gone... And since I had taken the antibiotics for soooooo long my immune system probobly needs alot of work!!! I do not have any money most of the time if im not living outside I reside in a motel room.... but I am very interested in hearing any kind of feedback concerning this issue .. Thanks for your time

Re MRSA: A number of years ago I had an outbreak of "boils" that came from unknown source. My doctor prescribed antibiotics which created more problems in the long run. Internet searches on my symptoms produced the suggestion for using turmeric, in capsule form and as a paste on the boils (you can do both applications at the same time). I mixed turmeric powder with water and applied externally (remember: turmeric will stain! ); then assembled my own capsules (size 00) of turmeric powder and took three capsules three times a day with food. If you are diabetic, however, turmeric is very drying and shouldn't be taken without your doctor's knowledge and permission. Tumeric is very inexpensive, a natural food product, and not addicting.

I have a 5 year old who has had problems with mrsa so my question is,would the remedies that can help me be the same for him? is turmeric safe for him to take as well and how could I administer this to him in a way that he will take it? Ps. thanks for your help

There is a honey that works great in conjunction with antibiotics as well as by itself. I forget the name but it starts with an "M".

I am sorry that I could not remember the name of the honey. Now I do, it is Manuka. Here is a link to one of many scientific studies that prove the healing powers of Manuka: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/04/110412201713.htm
