I agree with Linda on the previous post she made,about pen pushers etc,in NHS.It does not only happen there.The police are handcuffed by it :(,and other professions too.Pumping money into the NHS,only to be paid to managers to cut costs is wrong.Pay staff a decent wage,and bring back Matrons.I am a retired detective(think I mentioned this somewhere previously)?Why bring in hired nurses,at better wages,than training more NHS staff.?Do I have brain fog,or what?[?]

Hi Linda. thanks for the tip on Bee Propalis, I have bought some today. I had a nasty reaction to some anti biotics last yrar and was off work for five weeks! I have been nervous of taking any since so will try those. Do you take them all the time or just when you are ill? Thanks, Linda

Take only when you're ill. Sometimes if we feel like we're coming down with something we take for 5 days as a precautionary measure. I haven't taken antibiotics for well over 8 years since finding these & haven't had a really bad infection. Previously I was on antibiotics it seemed like half the year as I really used to suffer (& I mean suffer) with septic throats. Haven't had a bad throat now for over 8 years & no sign of any septic throat since discovering bee propalis & gargling with 1 drop of tea tree in 10ml of water as soon as my throat feels a bit scratchy.

I gave a course to an elderly neighbour who was on her 4th lot of antibiotics & still was being driven mad by a badly infected ear. Within 3 days her ear infection was cleared although I told her to keep taking as you would an antibiotic. She told me later that she'd stopped her antibiotics as she believed me when I told her it was a wonder drug - I wouldn't advise this as you should ALWAYS finish a course BUT then again I haven't been to the docs for antibiotics for a long time.

We never travel anywhere without Bee Propalis, Tea Tree Oil & Pawpaw Ointment.
Those 3 just about cover you for most problems - infections, cuts, chaffing etc. etc.
Plus some Aloe Vera - in hot countries, just in case you get sunburnt & we bought some GE Oral in Turkey (like dialoryte only cheaper) so we're pretty much covered apart from a few painkiller tablets (just in case!)

Another thing for those of you with asthma - try & find some local bee pollen, if you can't find that then some local honey. Tip of a spoon of pollen or a heaped teaspoon of honey daily helps boost your immune system & make you less likely to have an attack.

Hi Lindacarl.I know how you felt when working in a lab.I did too,but gave up.Mind you I was only 18.I wanted to get out and about.I too have problems (with pharyngitis),and will be trying the bee propalis,tea tree,(and paw paw).The last doctor I saw refused to give me any more antibiotics as he said the pharyngitis was viral:(.That was the last thing I wanted to hear.I queried him about whether the fact that I had suffered ME for several years(resulting in being pushed to resign from the job I was in at the time),could be a contributory factor.He replied that it was,and that my immune system would always be compromised.However I DO have good spells,but winter does not help me.You should get a fee paid to you for all the good advice you have given pro bono.Alec.

You may be interested to know that Bee propolis is available here in Fethiye, it is not quite as strong a potency as available in the UK.
It is available just past Eren Spot heading into town on the left hand side from a shop that sells honey and all related bee equipment. I am just about to try it after a chest infection picked up in the UK and two lots of different antibiotics, one in the UK and one here and four or five bottles of cough syrup and a tickly cough that just won't completely go away.
Watch this space results will be published! 8)

Three days completed.........No noticeable improvement at all.  Will continue on to five days as suggested.

I will get some of the Bee Propolis for my daughter who was suppoesed to have a tonsilecomy next week but has chosen not to.

On the MRSA subject, my fathers partner had an op on her hand 2 years ago. She checked on the hospital and discussed her concern regarding this infection.  She was assuered that she was to be the 1st patient to use the theatre in this hospital and so there wouldn't be any contamination.  She's since had an operation to remove the lymph glands under her arm and recently had to endure a mastectomy due to MRSA contracted during the procedure 2 years ago.  Even now, the antibacterial gel doesn't seem to be used on enteriing wards or patients area by the medical health professionals and in fact, when we visited her, I noticed that on one door through which we exited, there was no hand gel at all.

Tried the beepropolis,Linda,but it set off my allergies.Swollen eyes,wheezing,tight chest etc.Had to stop taking it.Still taking the gargle concoction,which seems to help.Their was a warning on the beepropolis container about pollen asthma sufferers.Thick I may be(no pun intended),but it is nice for people to give advice.Alec.

the hospital i work at does have this facility and is now bringing in a new procedure to decaminataion all new patient admissions to the wards
the rules and regulations do differ from one health authority to another,maybe if people went to the monthly/quartly  meetings of the public and health officials that authorities are suppose to hold they could voice their concerns then
