Here is a successful protocol for sepsis administered to patients who might otherwise have died. It came from one of the comments on Health Rising made to Cort’s article on some similarities between ME/CFS and sepsis.
I had talked to a doctor friend about this protocol. He said that emergency treatments of sepsis in the past had included very high doses of cortisone (prednisone or?). However, this was stopped when at first patients improved then ended up dying of a new infection. The difference with the protocol above, however, is it is a comparatively much lower dose of hydrocortisone with a few other helpful additions like Vit C. This lower level of additional hydrocortisone would not be enough to make the body open to new infections as the very high dose does after a quick honeymoon period. My doctor friend thought that this successful protocol wouldn’t be used elsewhere though until/unless it was proven by laborious study, but as a helpful strategy, a “Get Out Of Jail” card, I thought you’d like to know.
All the very best from me and your many friends!
