[I'm no longer using the Edit function. I'll just create another post. @charlie does the edit function not allow saves the way an original posting would? I've lost a few well-thought paragraphs only to see them lost when I happen to press one hotkey combination of Google's Chromebook unintentionally that moves me away from my edit window(which happens so often I wish I could disable all the hotkeys in Chromebook) ]
Doxy or mino is only a temporary solution to removing SD. Its use causes a bacteria to be killed in a way that doesn't produce SD. Without these antibiotics, our body's white blood cells, often the neutrophils kills the bacteria through phagocytosis, and the by-products or waste from this interaction gets released through the scalp and produces SD.
Still, it's a good way to know that the SD is caused by bacterial infection when antibiotics resolve them. But since we can't keep taking antibiotics, we'll have to find out where the source of the bacteria is coming from, and remove the source. In my experience, I've found the source to be from periodontal infection, which could be hidden from us and not even be detected by dental x-rays. We would find out about it after the infection has festered for years (mine was at least 15 years).
During this time the infection would have released so much bacteria to the blood, and not all the bacteria would be destroyed by the immune section. The ones that get way get lodged in the vast network of the vascular system, in the blood vessels. Even when the periodontal infection is removed, these bacteria are constantly being released from plaque and as they are released, they become active, having been awakened from dormancy.
So, even after the source of infection has been removed, the effects continue. SD is the least we have to worry about. High blood pressure would also result. And when we get old and get carted to the ICU, these bacteria, being opportunistic and knowing it's time to pounce, will get us to the other world very easily. Taking strong antibiotics would only produce plenty of endotoxins, and these endotoxins could very well overwhelm the weak immune system of an old man, and sepsis would take hold. Which is probably why many people in their old age would die of sepsis.
