Botulism

http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dbmd/diseaseinfo/botulism_g.htm

Is this what has ailed many TM'rs?

How can botulism be treated?

The respiratory failure and paralysis that occur with severe botulism may require a patient to be on a breathing machine (ventilator) for weeks, plus intensive medical and nursing care. After several weeks, the paralysis slowly improves. If diagnosed early, foodborne and wound botulism can be treated with an antitoxin which blocks the action of toxin circulating in the blood. This can prevent patients from worsening, but recovery still takes many weeks. Physicians may try to remove contaminated food still in the gut by inducing vomiting or by using enemas. Wounds should be treated, usually surgically, to remove the source of the toxin-producing bacteria. Good supportive care in a hospital is the mainstay of therapy for all forms of botulism. Currently, antitoxin is not routinely given for treatment of infant botulism.

We have to be able to protect ourselves for we may not be able to get to an MD for a fresh script!

Likely not. Would expect some neurological weakness/paralysis. (I've seen it in a duck before).

You have made a good point here. Natural antibiotics are readily available and products like acidolphilus work wonders without all the side effects. No problem stocking up on these things at this point in time.
