Avatar f tn they put me on a 2 wk regimen of avelox. i am not having any side effects from it, but infection continues to get worse. at this point i feel no end in sight for this infection. it is feeding off the antibiotics and in my mind i will never get well. and i am sure with being on 4 sets of antibiotics, this bug has just grown resistant to anything and will kill me. i don not relish a long suffocating phegmy death. any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
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 I once again go to my allergy dr who now gave me an oral steroid and an antibiotic called AVELOX he said it could be a sinus infection or allergies. it is too the point I am getting really annoyed, frustrated, tired... I JUST WANT IT TO GO AWAY!!! any thoughts? I am scared to take the AVELOX because I have panic attacks and this medication causes nervousness, suicidal thoughts, nightmares, confolsions, and other bad side effects and I am afraid to even take it.
Avatar f tn After over 5 yr's of constant mucus brought on after a bad sinus infection, its like dejavu I'm trying to get rid of another sinus infec. Recently I caught a very bad "cold" or bacterial or viral infec. I have been on antibiotics and I have gotten some changes in the amount of Green and discolored mucus. I just can't shake this it is confusing for me since the antibiotic's do help while I'm on them, but when stopped it comes back full force.
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 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 f tn I have come down with a miserable sinus infection......gee could it be my low rbc & wbc....what ever the reason My primary care giver has given me antibiotics. He and my hep doc are at same clinic so he is aware of all my meds...and still I have concerns about taking them. Has any one else had to take antibotics while on tx... Any info that would set my mind at ease would be helpful.
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 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 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 went to the Dr., got nasal spray and antibiotics so the sinuis better. But....I have popping and severe sharp pain in my left ear. What can I do.? 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 n tn A sinus infection due to a tooth infection is usually in the maxillary sinues, so a Neilmed Sinus Rinse is probably best for you--available at drugstores for about $13
Avatar m tn ) Upper jaw tooth pain, headache Painful sensation in bottom of maxillary sinus when trying to drain sinus rinse (before passage fully closes off, like trying to shake water out of ears) Malaise, irritable Change in voice and appetite Sensitivity to noises, ringing in ears Sometimes a low grade fever Treatment: prednisone + Avelox and/or Vantin. Vantin alone cleared last infection. Two 4+ week antibiotic courses in 2007 and 2009. Symptoms clear quickly after starting antibiotic.
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 m tn Doctor gave me a z-pack for Sinus infection , which is first day 500mg and 4 days 250mg, but I just found out I have Chlamydia.
Avatar f tn 36 wks 5 days. What can I take for chest congestion and cold? It always turns into a sinus infection and I'm trying hard to prevent that this time. This would be my 3rd one during this pregnancy.
Avatar n tn I went for an STD panel where I was diagnosed with a chlamydial infection (all other tests were negative). I was prescribed 1g azithromycin single dose, however after 2 weeks the symptoms didn't resolve. Since that time I have been prescribed two rounds of metronidazole 2g single dose twice and doxycycline 100 mg bid for 14 days (symptoms hadn't abated, provider considered trich, and mycoplasm as possible culprits). I was also put on avelox 400 mg for 10 days as well.
Avatar n tn I have the same problem right now I have had a sinus infection from one bump on the 4th of July haven't done coke since proably Vegas few years back. I'm using all natural methods now as I'm sick of resorting to Antibiotics, literally every time I touch the stuff this happens to me sometimes it lasts for weeks. Funny thing is I've sniffed other stuff like K for crazy music festivals etc never cause a single problem.
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 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.
