avelox

Avatar f tn also been on the avelox a week now and still have a week to go, but infection is just getting worse. have been making sure not to take any dairy or other minerals with it, 8 hrs before or 4 hrs after taking it. doc told me to take my omeprazole every day for my acid reflux (which i haven't had any problems with in quite a while) because she thought my acid reflux might be causing all of this to be worse and making my asthma flare up.
Avatar n tn Could be sinus infection too. Go to a hospital so that you can have head and chest x-rays. A chest x-ray is the ONLY way to rule out pneumonia. If you are getting the chest X-ray then no reason not to also have the head X-ray. Doctors treat a sinus infection they can see much more rigorously. Then leave with a good strong antibiotic, if it is a sinus infection you might try Avelox.
Avatar n tn t think I have an ear infection(s) she thinks I just have a sinus infection. She thinks I am just having sinus pressure and my sinuses are draining behind my ears. I have never had such bad ear pressure before with all of my sinus infections. But I don't know if a trip to an urgent care to have them check my ears is important to do or not? I decided to start the prednisone the allergist prescribed and took my first dose of 3 pills at 3pm. Today was my second day of Avelox.

Avatar m tn After this encounter, I began having symptoms after 10 days or so including sore throat, post-nasal drip, neck lymph nodes swollen, general fatigue (feels like low-grade fever but when temparature is checked, it is 97 to 99). Went to see a couple of doctors and they think it is sinus infection - so went on two anti-biotic treatments (Augmentin 10 days - which did not work, then Avelox 14 days). Just finished the Avelox course, but still having some post nasal drip and sore throat.
660680 tn?1225215237 A few days after the exposure I statrted taking an antibiotic, Avelox, for a sinus issue. Over the weekend I statrted to itch but with no visible signs of a rash. The question I have is this an early sign of HIV infection? Were my blood tests too close to exposure and therefore worthless? Is the "itch" a possible adverse reaction to the Avelox. I stopped taking the antibiotic today. Just overly concerned and need some reassurance that I have not contracted HIV.
Avatar f tn If you have taken any of these drugs, do you remember if you took them before or after you developed cardiac symptoms. I am wondering if my cardiac symptoms are due to taking Avelox for a sinus infection. If you do need an antibioitic make sure that your doctor does not prescribe any of these drugs. They are associated with a number of devastating reactions.
Avatar f tn Took Cipro and the sinus pain was not improved so that was follwed by a course of Avelox where I ended up in the ER by day 7 on it [couldn't walk on my own needed IV fluids]. Off it for a week now and still really tired, various nerve pain, joint pain, muscle fatigue...seems to cycle, weak and dizzy, some blurred vision but it's all better than it had been just seems it should be gone since the meds are out of my system.
1049259 tn?1295088478 went to Idaho at the end of march. I was fine up until april then I developed stuffy nose and a cough. I came home (las vegas) april 19th and I went to the er. no x rays nothing they said I had some fluid in the ears and it is allergies (told me to take zyrtec) so I did and it didnt really help. ended up going to my allergy dr.
Avatar n tn I had these pains in both my shoulders at once, which almost never happens, so I thought it was my rotator cuffs going due to the work that I do. I recently developed an upper respitory infection and bronchitis and one of the medications was AVELOX. Within 3 days the severe pain in my shoulders was GONE. How is this possible? Was it a viral infection causing my pains and if so could it be a form of Lyme Disease?
Avatar f tn It was New years day and I was horribly sick. I got ahold of my Dr. and he aske a lot of questions and we together thought that the cipro most likely covered the infection and then went nuts when I was off it. He then put me on a Avelox for 10 days. During the Avelox course of treatment, I was coughing very hard over the sink in the bathroom and from my right nostril a huge liver looking clot came flying out and splashed all over the place my shirt was covered.
Avatar n tn I was sick with a sinus infection and somehow I woke up a week later couldn't breathe. I went to the ER and was diagnosed with pneumonia in left lung in both lobes and was admitted into the hospital for 3 days. I feel like crap and my back hurts is that part of healing. It would be a week tomorrow and I feel like crap.
Avatar n tn t abated, provider considered trich, and mycoplasm as possible culprits). I was also put on avelox 400 mg for 10 days as well. Currently I have 6 days remaining on the doxycycline and 9 days remaining on the avelox. I have not engaged in any sexual activity whatsoever since my diagnosis however I still have a very mild clear mucus discharge primarily in the morning; the penile itching and dysuria has abated.
Avatar n tn At the end of February, I got a bad case of the flu, which turned into another sinus infection and bronchitis. I had to take Avelox for 10 days and my vaginal symptoms seemed to return. Again, just redness and irritation. Treated again for a yeast infection and symptoms got a little better but never went away until this week...the symptoms are a lot better. I finally saw my doctor again yesterday for my yearly check up.
Avatar f tn This has been going on for about 6mos at this point. It all started with a very bad sinus infection but after that started to go away all these other symptoms started popping up starting with headakes, optical migrains and pain in the back of my head. This then moved on to night sweats and muscle pain which is getting worse and worse. I seem to be pulling muscles very easily.
Avatar n tn effect of no sleep, food, excess energy, tics, paranoia and panic attacks I ended up with a sinus infection and estachain tube blockage. How could the adderall cause this?

I am doing Yoga breathing to help and popping them but as soon as I more around it comes back. Will this go away?
Avatar m tn Xyzal Veramyst Singulair Multivitamin HCTZ Trying Sinupret+ since yesterday Sinus Rinse bottle Questions: 1. Mucus cultures taken by ENT show moraxella catarrhalis. I’ve read that m. catarrhalis colonizes children, and my problems started soon after having our first kid. Is there a connection? What can I do about it? 2. Should I get tested for food allergies? 3. Should I add anything to the Sinus Rinse bottle to prevent or stop infection? H2O2? Antiseptic? Xylitol? Plant extracts? Anti-fungal?
Avatar m tn Had unprotected oral (only) sex exposure (giving and recvg) 2 months ago. Took 8 days of 400mg Avelox for sinus infection post exposure. Saw Urologist appx 11 days after event with urgency / frequency to urinate, fullness in abdomen, penile discomfort consistent with having to urinate badly. No dischearge and no burning when urinating. Urine sample was clear, rectal prostate exam with secretions showed bacteria in prostate. Diagnosed with prostatitis. I am not sure what (clear) meant?
Avatar n tn On November 27th, 2007, I came down with some sort of virus that included sinus drainage, fever and a raging bad sore throat with swollen glands in my neck. I had to take antibiotics due to a sinus infection and after that, I was sure that I came down with a yeast infection. Treated it with Monistat and got some relief but a week later, it seemed to be back. I saw a doctor who did cultures for yeast, chlamydia and gonnoreah, all of them came back negative...even the yeast.
Avatar n tn At first i had a sinus infection and took amoxicillian for that. Then I had real bad irriatation, and clumpy abnormal discharge, and open sores inbetween my vagina and anus. A few days after this happened I noticed little bumps on my labia that were tiny and white and popped rather quickly and then turned into ulcers. They caused no pain and I barely knew they were there. I went to a gyno to find out what the issue was.
Avatar n tn t done coke in almost 10 years and then I ended up doing a few lines on Thanksgiving and I got the worst sinus infection of my life. I thought it was because of the weather and it wasn't until I did a few lines a couple weeks later and ended up sick again that I made the connection. I figured it was because of the cut but I can't deal with this. It's not even worth taking the chance. I am so pissed at myself for being so stupid.
Avatar f tn Avelox... I went yesterday and saw a lung specialist, he calmed me down and told me that i only have a little pneumonia in my lower left side it's nothing to be worried about. It's the bronchitis that's causing a lot of pain in my chest and back that I did not have prior to the antibiotics.
Avatar n tn I have been having the same problem for over a year now and can't seem to find anything on the internet or anywhere that addresses the issue. I spoke to my doc about it when it started happening, and was told it was a sinus infection. I was given a nasal spray and that was it. Of course, it didn't work, I am still having the problem and I have recently noticed lately that the odor comes when I bend slightly forward.
Avatar m tn I was prescribed six 500mg Levaquin tablets to treat Strep Throat and a potential sinus infection. I only took 4 of the 6 pills since the side effects were getting to much to handle. I started on 3/12/2010 to 3/15/2010. Here were the side effects: -nausea -no appetite -headaches -dizziness -diarrhea -anxiety attacks -confusion, like you don't feel like yourself After I stopped taking it, my nausea and appetite returned gradually in the following two days.
Avatar n tn I had a root canal performed on my bottom molar in Jan. 2007 and since have had pressure on my head mostly when lying down, high blood pressure (never had before), and an overall feeling of fatigue - taking a few naps during the day which I never did before!
