Hi Paula
I don't know what the tests were, the diet I am on is a low carb as less
sugar as I can have diet, all fiber stuff!!
I was on 2 antibiotics for the infection as I had to go to A & E it was
so bad, but feel a bit better now.
Don't think it has gone away though, may needs some more treatment?
I carn't take meds as I had a stroke 2 years ago, so they are a no go
area, so the doc's say but I don't know, any ideas by yourself or any
other person reading this message would be greatfull???
Thanks again
Andrea
