29 Jan 2011 As below, but never ever experienced any painful effects
   —Posted by Rog
09 Jan 2011 administered daily since Nov/2009 until Easter 2010, had a resounding effect on infection, but then had problems with infected Hickman lines and feeling generally ill. Replaced by long term oral a/biotic which are maintaining the progress made with teicoplanin. In short it worked, but long term use made me nauseaus, generally feeling ill & hand tremors, which remain.
