Health & Safety: The Antibiotic Alternative

Knock-knock-knock. (An imaginary door opens.)
Hey, where are all my Prepper's? Come on guys, time to get busy!

RoadScribe’s iRV: Survival On Wheels
January 20th of 2009 was the start of the perfect ten year
financial storm. Are you ready?

My camp coffee pot has perked so let’s get down to it.

I’m fully recovered after getting the taxes done and thanks to June Walker’s blog, books and seminars, finding out one of my neighbors is a biz minded tax pepper, my ‘09 bookkeeping will be so much easier. Reading the latest survival blogs there is one very disturbing factor I wanted to bring to your attention in shadow of socialized medicine, and the stock piling of antibiotics.

Why? Well why not share years of medical experience to help Prepper’s protect their health. And in that spirit I’ll give you some health and safety articles. And once again: if there is a subject you want to hear about, hit the comment section with your topic. As editor, publisher, chief cook and bottle washer of this blog, I’ll get my gnomes right on it. Remember: there are some things we can take care of at home and then there are some we can’t. That is the invaluable knowledge we all need, that the medical profession won’t have the time to teach you. Fifty percent of my nursing career was patient teach. With socialized medicine, forget it, that’s all out the window.

History is a great teacher:
Please remember that antibiotics were created to treat horrible diseases, but through the years they have been horribly abused to the point of creating antibiotic resistant organisms such as MRSA. In the last few years antibiotic resistant TB, MRSA and many others are flowing across the Mexican border. That’s why I cringe when people tell me they go to Mexico to get their abortions, dental work, plastic surgery and yes, stock pile their antibiotics. When I worked at John Sealy Hospital in Galveston I used to take care of that aftermath. And for those of you that are in the mindset of antibiotic stockpiling, you are setting yourselves up for a bigger problem. Antibiotics are good if you know the exact organism you are fighting, and that is done with a Culture and Sensitivity in a lab. Better take the right amount of antibiotic for your age and weight, or, you are risking liver failure, kidney failure, respiratory shut down, or like my hubby, affected with a skin infection in both legs called MRSA cellulitis. All of the antibiotics he was given didn’t work because they had been overused so much. Then he was given a new antibiotic, just approved by the FDA. Guess what? That left him in such pain, he couldn’t move and spent six weeks in rehab center learning to walk again.

This is what I’m trying to help you understand. Otherwise you are playing hit and miss.
Example of how this medical nightmare starts: Go to doctor with a fever and congestion. Here take this antibiotic and come back in two weeks. But now your fever is worse and he gives you something else to take. That doesn’t work and now you’re in the hospital, exposed to their infections as well.

Disclaimer: now I’m not saying don’t go to the doctor ever again. What I am saying is learn to protect your health situation by prevention and if you do have to access socialized medicine, you will be that much smarter to figure out that rushed doctor or nurse should have told me this also or I'll end up here again.

In future entries I’ll help you with that information also. Just hang on, this is my only volunteer writing effort to help my new Prepper friends. Gotta make a living too. Yes, I’m one of those evil Capitalists. But still a nurse at heart. Your solution is in a reading assignment now that you have disconnected from the Matrix with all this extra time on your hands.

Yes, this is silver water, and no it won’t turn you blue unless your going to drink gallons at a time. That article was product of out esteemed biased media.

I found out about silver water while working my last year as a home health nurse in what many in Big S.A. call Mexico’s Most Northern city. Camping friends at Lake Point RV Resort, my base camp at the time, were using it with some pretty good results. Last thing I want to do here is sound like a car salesman, I hate that. So go read for yourself. What I will tell you is my friends gave me a couple of gallons of silver water to try and I stopped feeling tired all the time, my asthma that often went into an infection improved, so there is your antibiotic from a one gallon silver water generator. But go and read because there are other effects as well, such as for dermatology conditions, yeast infections, acne and what I found was very a big help, reduced swelling after I had hyperextened my knee. I don’t drink it every day, only when I need it and can brew up spare bottles for storing. I do keep a gallon bottle of silver water ready to use in the kitchen and a spray bottle filled for topical use if a skin flare up occurs from years of using harsh chemicals to protect myself in the medical profession. Get into one of the three P’s: poison ivy, poison oak, poison sumac? Drink a cup, spray it on the spot and let it air dry in front of a fan. Works better than all those steroids the doc will give you. And won’t deteriorate your bones either.

This is my gift of knowledge to you. And now it is up to you pick up that challenge and learn how to protect yourself in the face of highly taxed rationed health care. Because when it comes down to it, and this system is fully in place, we will be nothing but cattle in a feed lot to the New World Order.
