As the antibiotics don't seem to be working, (since may 10th, 500mg of either clarithromycin, those were for two weeks, and erythromycin up to last Thursday) Mercia asked them if she could try Manuka Honey and it seems to be working - the swelling is very much down as is the heat and redness. They want to keep her in for another week but she's champing at the bit to get home. I've passed on the hugs and best wishes and she said to say thank you all for your kindness.

Glad to hear that Mercia is getting better.
omg never realisied she wasn't well. Hope she is home soon and on the mend xx
nice one, glad she is getting better
Sorry to hear that Mercia? is unwell (sorry don't know who she is) but what intrigued me was if the antibiotics are not working what is so special about this honey?
Question Author
Manuka Honey is special honey with anti-bacterial propeties, the Manuka or Tea tree has been used for years by those in the know - testimonies from people who have had ulcers and other wounds that wouldn't heal have been 'cured' - by eating the stuff and using it as a poultice to fight infections. You can get it at Holland and Barrett, but my daughter gets it from a web site in special capsules to take and a liquid form to use like a cream on the wound itself.
Good news and thanks for updating us - "champing at the bit" is always a good sign!
Glad to hear the honey is working, I wish her well.
saw this, I really hope Mercia gets well soon Painter, give her my love

Oops sorry, wrong thread. Please pass on my best to mercia painter.
I heard about Manuka being good for arthritis so decidedd to give it a go, when I got it I saw in small print "Do not use if you have high blood pressure" I have - so put it away and forgot about it. Months later having a really bad bout of pain decided to try it, what a reaction , felt woozy, high and shaky, I threw it away, it doesn't suit everyone but if it works for Mercia brilliant, best wishes to both of you.
