With all this hype about the Orkambi that is apparently a "Cure"for delta F508 mutations, it got me thinking about Colistin.
This is a section 21 medication that I am on, it is my "LAST RESORT".
This medication was made in France and is yet to be approved in South Africa, 10 years after the clinical trials started.
What A Patient has to go through to get this drug is nightmarish. It is more of a headache than someone hitting you over the head with a frying Pan. And yet, what do we "last resort"patients do without it? What options do we have when we are resistant to every other drug available?
