Thanks, as always, you know where to get to reliable sources quickly. I can get easily overwhelmed and confused by some of the hits I get, and it can be hard to sort through misinformation or not statistically representative. I also know we all react differently so one size doesn’t fit all, but you know the challenges we face…. Fix one thing at the expense of something else, so trying to find a happy medium

dbeshears1 -- I've been given somewhat strong antibiotics in 2009 and in 2012, hospitalized 3 days and was given Vancomycin. I questioned my primary and neuro doc about antibiotics being a possible cause for PN. Since there is no test to determine that, without proof, there is little room for discussion. But, along the lines of your comment, I also mentioned in 2021 that IF... IF the cause of PN were antibiotics, what would now be prescribed to someone with PN? I'm told that when there is a need for an appropriate antibiotic. it has no impact on someone with PN. I feel many primary docs are not aware of any possible relationship between these drugs and PN. Their position is where is the proof. Right!
