Future considerations

Hi all,
I am curious if anyone else has had a positive result, I am fighting Pouchitis at the moment and have just taken a mega dose of Tinidazole - the Flagyl isnt working so my doc had given me a Stat dose of the Tini - I cant have the Cipo stuff as I have allergies to Penecillin, My wife has lined me up to see a natropath (forgive spellling) - has anyone had good results from a natural approach? If so What were the strategies?

cheers
Chris

I am confused. A penicillin allergy does not mean that use of Cipro is contraindicated. Cipro is not related to penicillin, and is in a. Completely different class. I know there are a few sites out there saying there is a relationship, but no medical sites.

Perhaps you were thinking of cephalophorin (Keflex), which is sort of related to penicillin, and there is a known risk of possible cross-allergy there.
