Roger -- according to my friend, this was the most UNmaverick doc she's ever been to (she's 67.) She was astonished by his apparent switch.Of course that's subjective, but doesn't change the circumstances.

Date:9/28/2001 7:09:34 AM Eastern Daylight Time From: [email protected] (JudytheK) Reply-to: [email protected] To: [email protected] RE: Quackbuster types. I mailed a bottle of CS to a friend in PA. She had been treated without success for 11 months by her surgeon for a post-op open-wound infection at the incision site. She was healed after topical use for 3 days. The doctor now recommends CS to all his patients for use on his incisions for 3 days! I don't know whether it speaks ill of the doc's cleanliness. More likely the problem is in the hospital. My point is that you change medical minds one person at a time. That is the true challenge and the true answer -- and it is slowly happening, I believe. One way to change minds is to say "yes" when accused accurately. Argyria? "YES with silver protein, never with CS" gets people to listen. One person at a time. Judy Down Maine Judy: I couldn't agree more, but it takes a maverick doctor to use an "unauthorized" medication just because it happens to work. God bless the REAL doctors. Roger
