JointCracker · Posted: Mon Jan 09, 2006 6:49 pm Post subject: Antibiotics

If Jointcracktitis is caused by bacteria, antibiotics seem to be a smart choice to get them out of the system.

One doctor I once consulted on Jointcracktitis proposed that I gulp strong antibiotics for a longer test period to look for any effects.

I took the broad band antibiotics called "Zithromax" with active agent "Azithromycin" 500mg thrice a week for 5 weeks. According to the doctor I should have noticed positive effects after the 3rd week the latest.

During the test I maintained a table where I wrote down how I felt on a scale from 1 to 10 each day. Unasked, I also wrote down what I ate and what happened in my private life in this time.

After this test period I could have done more blood tests which might then have been able to tell more since the antibiotic might have triggered a bodily reaction.

In fact, I did notice change within the 5 week test period. However, I had major positive changes in my private life which (unfortunately) invalidated the test. It is my belief the positive effects I noticed do not stem from the antibiotics but from these private changes. A couple months after the test, I was back to "normal".

I conclude broad band antibiotics are not a suitable treatment for Jointcracktitis.
