The problem is NOT ENOUGH antibiotics
they give you so little in an attempt to avoid developing a tolerance and prevent kindy failure... but all that does is allow the strongest bacteria to survive.
They should whack you up with enough to kill everything- so much that you have to eat yogurt and special stomach bacteria so you can digest food again
I was sick for almost 2 years from food poisoning- I finally cured myself by tripling my antiobiotics until it was gone, STARTING with one massive dose, and finishing with one after 3 days to let my body rest.
I dont know if I damaged my kidneys or not but I felt 1000% better for the first time in 2 years. And I would RATHER die than continue to live like that.
You are quite right.
One of the really terrifying scenarios is drug resistant tuberculosis. It has started to occur in poor environments; inner town ghettos and in Russian jails, where patients either are not given long enough cures, or they are selling the medicine to get money for narcotics.
