On April 8, 2021, I was diagnosed with bacterial prostatitis, E. coli infection with ESBL.

My symptoms included daily fever with spikes to 103/104 degrees, severe body and muscle aches, chills, chest congestion, and coughing. I could not urinate without medication, and I was unable to do even the most mundane daily routine tasks. I suffered more than 2 years of failed antibiotic therapy with diminishing health and constant serious side effects from the antibiotics. I knew if I continued with traditional antibiotic therapy, my life would be cut short by this untreatable infection. I poured myself into the research on Phage Therapy. After meeting Pranav Johri, I felt confident that Phage Therapy was the answer I had been looking for.

I travelled halfway around the world to Eliava Phage Therapy Treatment Center in Tbilisi, Georgia where I began my Phage Therapy treatment journey. I stayed in Tbilisi for one month where I began my first round of treatment which lasted 35 days. After that, I returned to the USA carrying the remainder of my Phage treatments with me. I repeated the routine for two more rounds of therapy, as prescribed by the urologist at Eliava. After just 4 months, I was cured of the infection. I remain that way over a year later. I experienced no side effects with phage therapy. Phage therapy did in 4 months what antibiotics failed to do in over 2 years. I have my life back and I am living infection free.
