Old Koreelah Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 …including my MiL, who was very sick as a child and one of the first to benefit from this new miracle drug. Without penicillin my wife would never have existed nor my kid or her littlies! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry_Atrick Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) Only too much of it... Thankfully, still don't get hangovers.. but I end up with a headache when I realised what I had purchased on eBay or Amazon, thinking how much I needed it at the time.. (and that includes a mini - which ended up not a bad buy and managed to get past the missus as it coincided with both her birthday and needing a new (used) car).

By diligent experimentation I have found those without sulphur dioxide seem to cause less headaches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacesailor Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) The only remidy before penicillin was amputation for a lot of illnesses. I was the guinea pig for ' osteomyelitis ' . It took five years to remidy the disease in the bone marrow !. Three jabs three times a day, & another if you ate anything , ( with bloody knitting needles on those syringes ) Then l had a couple of years converlessing & learning to walk again , with my withered muscles. Much easier the second time around, learning to walk after my new hip. LoL spacesailor Edited February 20, 2022 by spacesailor Spelling 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
