Hi. I'm looking for a few good posts regarding kidney health. Specifically I'm wondering if anyone has advice for keeping infections away. This past January, I ended up in the hospital with a pain on my left side the was unbearable and, after many unnecessary tests, learned I had a wicked kidney infection. I was prescribed cypro (which didn't work till I was through almost two rounds of the stuff) and then I emailed Ray to ask what antibiotic I might order from Mexico and keep around in case the nasty business ever came back. He responded.
Well, now it looks like it's baaaack. The pain is not as bad this time around but it is definitely there. I started taking Pen-Vi-K (Penicillin Potassium) I got from farmacia del nino just this evening. The pills come in 250mg's each. I'm guessing from the various websites I read that I need to take one pill every six to eight hours for ten days to get a full dose of the anitbiotic. If anyone knows anything useful about this stuff, please let me know as I'm flying without much guidance here.
But mostly I am wondering if there are any foods or supplements I should increase, or any I should avoid to keep this problem away. Also, does anyone know if there a specific excipients in supplements that can cause kidney problems.
Any thoughts will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
