I am about to break my record of making it for over two years (Oct. 12) without an antibiotic. Those of you who know me know I hate antibiotics and that I have used ONLY the collidial silver that I make to ward off resperiatory problems but guess what brought me to my knees.....begging for some hated antibiotics....a bladder infection! I hadn't had one of those in over 15 years so I had forgotten how painful they can be.
I just wanted to let everyone know that I had to finally break down and take an antibiotic.....and it wasn't even the COPD that got me.
Actually my COPD is doing surprisingly well. Its one of those times when I question...am I really that sick? Next breathing flare-up and my question will be answered.
I no longer have internet so I can't post often but I love you guys and I think of y'all and everything Ive learned here every day.

Glad your lungs are staying clear!
My doctor said it works for lots of women.
Worth a try but you have to take them every day.
I also took another course a couple of months later when I got 32 stitches in my face from a dog bite.
I was proud of my record and I really hate taking antibiotics, but sometimes we do what we have to do.
I always take a probiotic to complement the antibiotic.
sorry you have a bladder infection & i hope you are out of pain soon!
if you get a chance at internet again you will have to catch us all up= did you retire? are you enjoying life of leisure yet?
thoughts & prayers are with you.
