Dear MedicalMess: That pill you were talking about - Where can I get that pill? It doesn't cost much, does it? Does it come in generic?

Standard antibiotics.

Will be using a three group set of about 30 total of the 170 antibiotics available.

First group consists of primary hitters across all major oral antibiotic families. Second group is a backup to the first. The third group are miscellaneous rare families for cleanup. No intravenous antibiotics will be used. No hospital stays required. This will all be home therapy with blood tests every two weeks unless adverse effect dictates otherwise.

Antibiotics will be used two and three at a time in synergistic combinations already established in treating acute infections in emergency room treatments. We always use generic. Most regimes will run 8 to 12 weeks instead of the usual 7, 10 and 14-day dosing.

Costs depend on how screwed your body is with "normal flora" also known as sub-acute chronic stealth infection endemic to a particular population or geographic region. Cost to get rid of Lupus is about $1500. Annual cost to keep Lupus and play games is $11,000. Now spread this over 20 years. Pay $1500 and feel great and probably be cured, or $220,000 suffer and die. Think in terms of what you would pay a lawyer to keep you out of jail for a murder that you didn't commit. Cost is irrelevant because without health you have no life. However it is always more cost effective to eliminate an infection rather than the cost of trying to live with it. Usually it is anywhere from 10 to 300 times more cost effective to bomb the body than live with bacterial death.

The key is not the pill. The key is knowing which pills to use for what and that is the research I do. We are not only after identifying the disease that no one else has seen, but then also theorizing treatments based on all available references available on a disease.
