Hi there Squidgy,

You say in your journal that the doctor prescribed antibiotic drops for your ear. That is not the same thing at all as taking a course of systemic antibiotics(course of tablets or injections).
So I can't see any reason not to begin low carbing.

In fact, I can't see any reason not to start even if you were taking systemic a'bs.

Good luck to you, mate.
