Most antibiotics raise the viral load. I have PhD.s arguing
about this telling me that some are better for one reason
or another.
Facts are, there is no basis in fact to their positions.
Hepatitis C virus reacts to some of them more than others
and I am doing my best to understand them.
I remember getting sick everytime I took antibiotics. I
would tell the doctor and they thought I was just a nut
case. My dentist thinks I am a fanatic because I refuse
to take them. One pill can make me sick for days. The following
may be one of the reasons why.
Do yourselves a favor for the New Year! Do not take antibiotics
unless you are going to die if you do not!
Below is a statement about antibiotics and their effect
on the liver which may not be related to HCV.
I see antiboitics raise the viral load over 10 MILLION
points with as few as 3 pills!

Antibiotic-associated
hepatitis: update from 1990
November 21, 2004
50% of people with hepatitis c who take just a few antibiotics
will have there viral load double to quadruple.
The other 50% have their viral load go up 10 million points
or more.
I have observed this hundreds of times and have been reporting
it for many years.
It appears that a antibiotic called "LEVAQUIN"
which is generic for "LEVOFLOXOCIN" does not appear
to raise the viral load. I do not know if this hold true
in all cases but it seems to be consistent in the cases
I have observed.
If you have to take a antibiotic and you have hepatitis
C, demand this from your doctor instead of whatever he was
going to give you.
In good health
