Yes you are totally right Sue! After you sent this to me I thought about it and abtibiotics should really only be used if you have a reason to use them. It's why we have so many problems now with antibiotics not working; it's because they've been overused and abused. I'm only thinking because I don't ever want this to return, but I know they're going to be watching me and doing periodic scans and the cultures. So if it does return it does and at least they'll catch it early. There is some doubt whether this actually ever even goes away completely. I think it just hides and when it gets an opportunity it grows. But you're completely right. I agree with you 100%!
Thanks for your mail and reminding all of us that we shouldn't be using these antibiotics if we don't need them.

No antibiotics here - my routine is airway clearance, keep my asthma controlled, healthy diet, exercise, stay away from sick people. Probably a healthy dose of good luck too.
