Avatar f tn In your last post I said you would have to wait for your test results. Chances are if it was a STD Doxy might have cured it, but it might take longer and higher dosage to cure the STD (if you have one).
Avatar f tn Hey, this was years ago but im suffering the same symptoms as you were. How can you get rid of it?
Avatar f tn I'm 23 years old, 1/22/18 I tested positive for Chlamydia after experiencing UTI like symptoms and was prescribed 2 azithromycin 500 mg tablets from planned parenthood. Symptoms disappeared but then reappeared 3 months later and I returned and tested positive again and was pescribed doxycycline 100mg tabs once a day for 7 days. After treatment my symptoms continued to persist and I worried that I was still not cured.
18966962 tn?1472601945 I think the red rash is from use spraying the I use the restroom...I have been prescribed doxycycline hyclate 100 mg twice a day for a week then later 1g of azithromycin and a shot of rocephin. I have been tested twice both times negative for Chlymedia/Gonorrhea. Would those antibiotics cover most STIs as well? I know like NGU/Urithirtis/Vaginosis etc.. arnt covered in normal STD panels. Would those antibiotics cover most STIs that arnt included in standard STD panels?
Avatar m tn --- After Test 2, the local doctor acknowledge I have Syphilis NOT UTI and prescribed doxycycline for 2 weeks 2x a day (100mg each). I took doxycycline for 3 weeks instead of 2 weeks.
Avatar f tn Went back another 2 weeks later to planned parenthood, she did a wet mount and said she saw white blood cells, so prescribed me doxycycline without running my urine since it could have been a false positive. Anyways, the doxycycline seemed to help the uti symptoms until it was finished, now I feel the same as before. Really confused??? Going back into the clinic Monday to get tested and probably prescribed something else. What could be causing this?
Avatar m tn d like to know if the sti is cleared now after three rounds of antibiotics over 4 weeks. How soon can I have sex again? Can I have sex while experiencing the slight burn and how long do I wait before going to see a doctor gain?
Avatar f tn Chlamydia has never shown resistence to the macrolide antibiotics such as azithromycin nor the tetracylines such as doxycycline. Clindamycin has no effectiveness for treating Chlamydia. Cipro is iffy for both Chlamydia and Enterococcus infections. Ask your Doctor to be sure that the Enterococcus is not a resistent strain , as this is becoming more of a problem, especially here in the US. I hope you are well soon. Take care.
Avatar m tn t stop completely after stoping it one or two drop of urine drops out and I feel like one drop is still inside my penis. , so what you guys think . is that a uti. or something else . can it be cured , can I live a normal life like before. what should I do..
Avatar m tn You should return to the provider to diagnosed and treated you for reassassment. If you are found to still have urethritis, re-treatment may be recommended; the standard approach is to treat such men with azithromycin (Zithromax) with or without metronidazole (Flagyl and other brands). Please try to avoid urinating for at least 4 hours before being examined; this aids in detecting subtle evidence of urethritis.
Avatar m tn My stream/flow is fine, but the pressure is always there. The Dr. put me on Doxycycline now twice a day for 10 days. What could this be at this point? I'm on day two of the Doxycycline and I'm miserable. Haven't had any sexual contact since initial incident. Please help.
Avatar f tn Yes you can.
Avatar n tn I have what looks like a shanker on my penis and I must say I am somewhat concerned. My questions to you are since the encounter I have taken Doxycycline 2x's a day for ten days, about 13 days after the encounter and about a month ago I was on Amoxicillin for a sinus infection. I had sex with my wife after taking the Doxy and we have had sex a total of three times since the encounter.
Avatar f tn Doxycycline can be used for extended periods for 6 - 12 months in select situations under the supervision of a physician, but the doses are usually in the subtherapeutic range for infection at something like 25 or 50 mg a day. The dose you mentioned is a full antibiotic dose and is usually only used for a week or two.
Avatar f tn I am not sure in the absence of bacteria . Is this Herpes for sure? I use heat packs and hot water sitches and that gives temporary relief but the pain does not go away permenantly. I am told hsv test can be inconclusive. Am married and I have been extremely anxious for the last one month.
Avatar f tn What are you taking doxycycline for? Since you already have diabetes, you know your urine count being high is something to talk to your doctor about. Diabetic neuropathy can affect your genitals. I'd guess your issues though are more related to whatever you are taking doxy for if your diabetes is well managed (although your high urine numbers is confusing. Check with your doctor about that).
Avatar f tn I had started taking doxy last week before the positive came back just as a precaution but after taking for 2 days I developed a UTI so I stopped taking them and the UTI went away but now that I have the positive result I have started taking the doxy again. I wonder how bad my Lyme is?
Avatar f tn The first was 4 months ago, i went to the urologist for a std test and it was negative for all std. He said it was just an uti and he gave me a doxycycline, it cured after 4 days. The second pain was the month after and i went to the doctor again but this time for a uti test, guess what the test i was negative for a uti. The doctor said i might having a std but im so tired to get tested. So she gave me the same antibiotic but i didnt took it. The pain was for 2 days only and it was gone.
Avatar m tn I have read a lot online and wonder if it is worth me trying the two known nsu treatments which I have not had...doxycycline for one week or one dose of fluconazole in case it is thrush? IT SEEMS THAT WHAT YOU HAVE IS CHRONIC URETHRITIS NOW AND IT IS UNLIKELY THAT THERE IS AN ACTUAL INFECTION IN YOUR URETHRA FTER SO MANY ANTIBIOTICS AND NEGATIVE TEST RESULTS. IT IS MAINLY RESIDUAL INFLAMMATION SECONDARY TO AN ALREADY TREATED INFECTION AND TENDS TO BE IRRITATED BY THE URINE.
Avatar m tn I went to the doctor and was tested for chlamydia and gonorhea, which both came back negative. My doctor gave me doxycycline to take. I have been taking for about 4 days now. However it seems that my symptoms are getting worse. It is extremely painful/burns when I urinate and I have an enlarged/swollen lymph node on the left side of my groin which is painful to the touch. I am getting very worried about what else this could be? What other diseases could have these symptoms?
Avatar n tn I was told to continue Omnicef for 6 more days and doxycycline for another 3 weeks and then they will see. I will definitely print out your comments and see if I can have some of the test done.
Avatar f tn Hi, I am 26 male, sorry for my bad English. I had a sex with a women in 2013 who have a husband and 2 children and happy family. She is the 1st and last person with whom I had sex i feel gulity for that. In 2013 me and my friend was have had a sex with her. I was use condom but for 1 sec condom break during sex. After me my friend have had sex with her without condom. After 3 days of sex I feel burning sensation while pee. But no sore and no warts. But my friend have nothing no pain nothing.
Avatar m tn About 4 months ago I had protected sex with a sex worker and the condom broke (big mistake). The next day i wake up and my foreskin is swollen like 5x its normal size all the way around(I start freaking out). This subsided next day but then 2-3 weeks later a burning sensation appears at the tip of my penis and has been constant now for 4 months. I have had 2 very mild dribbling discharges and a big one after completion of leprofloxcin.
