- 1Posted by $ 25n56il4 3 months, 2 weeks agoI don't take antibiotics unless the diagnosis by my doctor indicates blood poisoning! In my 30's I was found to be immune to nearly every known drug for fighting a kidney infection and my doctor wired Walter Reed for two experimental drugs. The first one worked and I spent 6 days in the hospital. Then my doctor told me not to take an antibiotic for the next 7 years. I haven't taken one since that time and I am 87 years old. Your body builds immunities to things that you might need along the way and abusing the use of even good things can be dangerous.| Mark as read | Best of... | Permalink
