This is why you do medical tourism to a country like Thailand. Deregulated medical systems mean that you can meet doctors who are empowered to give you any drug you want for like, 1 USD.
If you get travelers sickness (half caused by gut bacteria), you can quickly get low level antibiotics which purges this and gets you back on your feet in a day or two. Not in America though, because the risk of “superbugs” means that everyone should struggle and be in serious avoidable pain.
Imagine how livid I was when I got peptic ulcers and my idiot doctor tried to tell me it was “stress”. I reported his ass to my states medical board and linked the other examples of doctors through history who understood the bacterial cause of ulcers and were sanctioned by their own medical boards for using the right treatment before it was accepted.
Don’t just accept their bullshit. Fight them every step of the way when you know you’re right.
- pjc50 2y agoThe stupid thing is that the worry about antibiotic overprescription is only applied to humans in the US. Whereas cows are given them with basically no oversight, making the resistance situation worse for humans. https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/antibiotic-resistance-beefing/ https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/antibiotic... (EU regulation restricts this somewhat, I think)

- Der_Einzige 2y agoFront line antibiotics don’t cause serious risk of the development of MRSA. I’m talking amoxicillin man!
