Avatar f tn 34.4 weeks. & I have bronchitis. Every time I cough I puke. My 11 month old also has it - on top of an ear infection in both ears (which she had a few weeks ago and was given antibiotics and it apparently didn't clear up)!!!! :( she's miserable & doesn't want to leave my arms if I go to set her down she screams. I'm exhausted before the sickness and it's really hard to hold her for long because she's really heavy esp on my belly.

Avatar f tn I was on antibiotics due to bronchitis. Thankful that I got better after being sick for 3 weeks. The doctor knows which are safe and try not to stress. I also called my obgyn and double checked the meds for a piece of mind.
214607 tn?1287677559 I agree with dkl I have had reoccuring utis and have had to take 3 antibiotics and they were all safe for the baby. Your dr will know what to prescribe you. If you are nervous you can google and look them up and double check.

Avatar m tn I recently have turned out far worse than expected and I had been given antibiotics for 5 days at 500mg. I have also been given the blue inhaler. However I have finished my medication and still coughing a lot and had a fever at 37.5 (Which is warm for me, I tend to be 36.7) and today for the first time in a long time I noticed I could not breath, felt like my throat was blocked off.
Avatar n tn I have built up a tolerance to Levequin, Zithromyacin, Amoxicillin, after 9 years of COPD and now have bronchitis. Any suggestions for other potential antibiotics or other ideas?
Avatar m tn i've went to the doctor a year ago and was diagnosed with acute bronchitis and took antibiotics to get rid of it. However, it never completely left. I always find by self breathless, tired, drained and I hardly have any energy. I also am constantly spitting in light red blood with yellow mucus mixed in it. So do you think I may have copd?
Avatar n tn Bronchitis doesn't mean anything -- just means your bronchia are inflamed. Doesn't tell you why, and unless it's a bacterial infection antibiotics don't treat it. Sounds to me like you had a bad reaction the medication -- unlikely you suddenly developed an anxiety problem at age 50, though not impossible.
Avatar f tn You need stronger antibiotics, even Doxy should be 200mg 2x per day. You most likely need more than one and a longer much longer duration.

1373852 tn?1307843048 I wake up at night wheezy,coughing up white or clear phlem . I also have chest heaviness and itchiness in the chest area. I feel like there is phlem stuck in my throat and my nose feels stuffed.When it is hot out I get these same symptoms.could this be asthmatic bronchitis or something else. I took antibiotics and they didn't help so the doctor gave me avelox(a stronger antibiotic)I am afraid to take it because there are so many dangerous side effects.
1485281 tn?1287948392 I had been seeing an ENT doctor back in September for a very bad sinus infection that would not go away. I was taking all sorts of antibiotics and steroids but it would not go away the doctor told me that if the last round of antibiotics didn't work they would consider surgery to drain my sinus. Here we are in December and it's still hanging around not much but I still have to blow my nose everymoring and I still have a cough. I do smoke but not as much as my live in boyfriend .
1982709 tn?1326384405 Two years ago I started to have trouble breathing, first I thought it was a cold or something, I went to the doctor and he diagnosed me with chronic bronchitis. He prescribed me a Ventolin inhaler and some antibiotics. After a while I got better. But it began a few month again, ok I thought it was the bronchitis acting up again. Now just before christmas I got really bad.
87651 tn?1259602403 Hi Mk- I am so sorry to hear you are sick with bronchitis! Yuck! I had it about 3-4 months ago. It takes a while to overcome it. How long have you been on the antibiotics and what kind? Usually as the antibiotics kill off the bacteria (if it's bacterial) you will feel worse before you start feeling better. I always treat medicine the same as supplements and take 2 hrs apart from my thyroid meds. I have been on a lot of antibiotics and don't seem to recall it affecting my thyroid.
Avatar f tn I was treated for MRSA in the past. Now I have COPD and chronic bronchitis. Can the MRSA reappear during one of my active bronchitis bouts?
Avatar m tn I have had diagnosed bronchitis 3 times in the past year, year and a half. Syptoms usually begin with runny nose, watery eyes, congestion, sinus pressure, and excess flem. This typically supsides and I am left with a scrathcy voice coughing up these almost solid like flem balls. My voice usually gets better after I get one of these out but it doesn't last long. The doctor prescribes me antibiotics of some sort and this usually clears it up.
Avatar n tn I have done covid tests everyday(home tests) and it says negative. I went to doctor 3weeks ago and he said it was bronchitis and gave me antibiotics and took 4 days of from work. But now i feel even worser this weekend. Any clue what it is?
4309115 tn?1357606283 Has anybody had to take antibiotics while on triple therapy and are there any counter indications or are the side effects worse?
Avatar n tn Coughing up colored sputum is a sign of infection. I, also, have asthma and tend to get bronchitis very easily after I've been sick, even with a cold or flu. Are you currently seeing a pulmonologist or strictly your primary care physician? If you are not seeing a pulmonary doc, I strongly advise you to get in to see one. They can definitely do more testing to see exactly what is going on and if, in fact, this is a case of chronic bronchitis, which is sometimes seen in COPD.
Avatar f tn s causing a lot of pain in my chest and back that I did not have prior to the antibiotics. He told me 5 days of that strong antibiotics is plenty and that I should continue on prednisone that's what will calm my inflammation in the lungs and eventually will get rid of my shortness of breaths episodes. Simbicort inhaler gave me side effects that's why I'm on steroid pills instead. I told him in not coughing anything out, he said nothing will come out..
Avatar f tn I was taking amoxicllin at first and just got told to stop taking it and got switched to arythomycin cuz I have what they believe to be the start of bronchitis. Now as a result im starting to get diarrhea is there anything I cam do to help stop the diarrhea?
