Default Re: eye infection

The remedy is worst than the symptom.
This is where how so called scientists have led us.
Still, most of them call this kind of treatments "medicine", others call
it "science".

When somebody appears and discovers different things, namely simple rest
techinques, he is crucifixed. Strange. If he was responsible of harmless
quackery, what these harmful modern people are doing?

They should be crucifixed too.

Now this doctor person who calls himself a board certified optht.,
doesn't he fells shy of telling us his own utter meaningfulness, his own
absolute impotence in treating a simple thing like an infection?

Not only he does not feel embarassed for his own impotency, but he does
not feel embarassed for the ugly treatment he prescribes: he gives such
terrible medicines, or drugs, with such tremendous ill effects! and the
patient? The patient, considered to be an idiot, just swallows the
bitter pill, and goes away.


Some man of science should explain to me and to the public what kind of
business is this.

"As surely as any soldier ever died on the field, Dr. Bates gave his
life for a cause, battling against fate, during many years of
magnificent struggle, when the unending disappointment finally broke in
hopeless despair. His torch is still burning. There will come some other
battler, who is fit, and will hold it high until the people who are
sitting in darkness have seen its great light."
William B. MacCracken, M.D.

Default Re: eye infection

This was probably not of the "infection" per se. This is the treatment used
for blepharitis. Yes, blepharitis MAY be associated with an infection, but
the tectracycline/doxycycline is not to kill bacteria. It is used to chenge
the makeup of the oils in the oil glands that have been changed,
chronically, by infection and by age, etc. This treatment needs to be
long-term (2-12 months). There really is not subsitute. This treatment does
cause photosensitivity (bad sunburn) as well as opportunistic infectons like
vaginal yeast, etc. It is the treatment of last resort.

It's hard to answer without knowing what organism is causing your infection.
