I have had constant and recurring e-coli infections for at least the past 3 years. I m 83 years old, and to date all the different antibiotics prescribed for me have not cured this condition. I have left untreated a possible new infection for at least 6 weeks. I now have a slight diarrhea and gas. I am interested in seeing an aurevedic practitioner. Is there one in my area of Palm Springs, CA
