Avatar m tn Pain in lymph nodes (neck, ear, jaw, armpit, chest). My head feels like I have very bad case of flu. Black under my eyes. I was diagnosed with "viral infection". I was given many antibiotics and last time I was given broad spectrum antibiotics. Crixan 500mg, Levofloxacin 500mg. Since then pain in lymph nodes little bit decreased. My head feels still the same, almost like drunk. Problem is, that I moved to Thailand and health care works here on demand. I HAD TO ask for blood tests.
Avatar m tn ve taken cipro from 7-14 days and even IV cipro for an infection. can you get a terrible lung infection and worsening of asthma?
Avatar m tn my 10 days would end on a sunday. so what should my decision be to go to them or not? They will probably send me to an Ear, Nose, and Throat (more time off work). My sinus infections go away by now and I have never needed more than augmentim. Note that the infection does respond to anti-biotics, but it did not totally go away after a month.
Avatar m tn That you were put on an antibiotic, they seem to feel you have a treatable infection. What was the ultrasound of? and you have an infected bite? Yes, that infection could cause our immune system to jump in and lymph nodes can react as yours have. But you are smart to make sure.
Avatar f tn I was given levofloxacin and muprocin for what was told a skin infection in my nostril and left ear. I had seen a hard white ridge of skin in my nose and started feeling like i had the flu two weeks ago. He rushed me, didn't tell me what kind it was and hasn't called me. I took my fourth of seven pills last night and still have flu like symptoms.
483814 tn?1214311480 18 years of age). Levofloxacin is contraindicated in persons with known hypersensitivity to levofloxacin or other quinolone antibacterials. Serious and occasionally fatal events, such as hypersensitivity and/or anaphylactic reactions and some of unknown etiology, have been reported in patients receiving therapy with quinolones, including levofloxacin.
Avatar n tn Careful with Levofloxacin. Sometimes the side effects aren't worth the benefits. I took Levofloxacin to cure a bout of pneumonia. Sure enough, the infection cleared up, but my joints ached so bad I could not raise my arms to take a shower, put my clothes on, bend to tie my shoes, get in and out of a car quickly. Strength training and jogging was out of the question for a month.
Avatar f tn chances are the infection never really went away, if it was gonorreah or syphilis it probably relapsed...
Avatar n tn We usually can respond to questions/concerns regarding diabetes. Levofloxacin is an antibiotic used to treat an bacterial infection, not diabetes. Call your doctor for medical advice about Levofloxacin side effects. Be sure to inform the doctor of all medications, supplements, vitamins and aspirins you are taking.
Avatar n tn The lack of response to levofloxacin, a broad spectrum antibiotic, is additional evidence that no STD or other bacterial infection explains your symptoms; chlamydia would have been cured if you had it. I suggest you continue to follow up with the urologist. You can be sure no STD or any other infection acquired from the escort.
Avatar m tn No, levofloxacin (Levoquin®) would have no effect on ARS symptoms. All ARS symptoms are due directly to the body's immune response to HIV.
Avatar f tn Last year i have a case which ghorrhea, they give me a injection, infact i have 4 injection of antibiotics i forgot whats the name but it doesn't help. They give me different types of antibiotics but still, my discharge is still there.
Avatar m tn I had the symptoms for 5 months with all urine and semen tests negative and left the infection untreated. Until 5 months when a urethral swab showed staphylococcus pneumoniae. I was given 3 injections of penicilin with long absorbation, but the symptoms persist. 2 weeks after the last injection the microbioligal sample was negative, but DNA showed gardnerella vaginalis and I took 7 days Levofloxacin. Symptoms persist.
Avatar n tn My assumption from her medication is that her doctors have no idea what the actual infection is, because otherwise they would treat her for that infection, not every other infection under the sun? If she had trichomonas, wouldn't I have caught it from her??
Avatar f tn Feburary 16th I woke up with a extremely painful earache and lost my ability to hear in my left ear. I went to a walk in clinic the following day for the Doctor to briefly look into my ear and said it was "buldging" she sent me home with Doxycycline and OTC Allegra and told me to come back in 3 days if there was no improvement.
Avatar m tn Got retested a month after, chlamydia tested positive again. They prescribed me Levofloxacin for 7 days, 1 pill a day, of which i took the last pill monday. Today we are wednesday. Now one of the symptoms i was having was a slight sticky clear discharge at the tip of my penis. This symptom was not present during the whole 7 days i took the levofloxacin. But now 2 days after i took that last pill, that symptom is present again.
Avatar m tn Well, I had some issue in my ear, a little bit of pain and a feeling of fullness in right ear, may be some hearing loss as well but not sure. I went to an ENT who diagnosed that I have some infection in ear and gave Levaquin. I took it in the night and I don't remember if I slept immediately after that. Buy what I remember I woke up to a very scary morning. I felt extreme dizziness and spinning sensation. I was struggling to stand up from bed. I vomited and had nausea.
Avatar n tn Most uncomplicated UTIs can be treated with oral antibiotics such as trimethoprim, cephalosporins, nitrofurantoin, or a fluoroquinolone (e.g., ciprofloxacin or levofloxacin). Trimethoprim is probably the most widely used antibiotic for UTIs and is usually taken for 7 days. It is often recommended that trimethoprim be taken at night to ensure maximal urinary concentrations and increase its effectiveness.
Avatar f tn We abstain from sex during the following week, however my significant other masturbates with a toy and the following day has dysuria and itching like a yeast infection from not cleaining it properly. This was 7 days from when we had unprotected sex. During this time my symptoms seem to fall by the wayside and I get my results back which are negative for everything. Thinking that we are safe we have intercourse, and 6 days after that I get the irritation on my foreskin back.
Avatar f tn I went back to the doctor and he gave me levofloxacin for tonsillitis but my throat is still sore on the 8th day on levofloxacin. In september i had a lung infection which i used levofloxacin for and i was coughing up greenish phlegm and it worked for that. I did smoke blunts for that time in september but I've stopped smoking weed for about a month now, and everytime i would smoke weed i would get itchy.
Avatar m tn this has reference to my previous postings on my std infection. My friend doctor who prescribed me zithromax 1g as a single dose and a week of doxycline 100mg bid did not eradicate the disease as i had developed epididymitis and also my wife who could be also infected had bleeding in between menstrual period. my question is , what would be the alternative treatment and what other stds that would possibly infected us. please help, anyone? thanks a lot.
Avatar m tn So I went back to my dr yesterday due to my glands continuing to ache and now my testicles seem to be aching along with tightness and discomfort in my lower back. My testicles are also much more sensitive. He prescribed levofloxacin in case of infection. Does this sound like it could be an STD? Is levofloxacin regularly prescribed for STD infections? Thanks!
487969 tn?1249313291 Peek - WOW - thanks so much for that! Really! There are numbers associated ---- here they are: Gentamicin = S (<=0.5) Levofloxacin = S (0.25) Nitrofurantoin = S (<=16) Oxacillin = S (0.5) Rifampin = S (<=0.5) Tetracycline = S (<=1) Trimet / Sulfa = S (<=10) Vancomycin = S (=0.5) The report also mentions that there were no Anaerobes isolated in 5 days. See I know what you mean about it actually came from my surgery.
Avatar f tn has anyone on here had an ear infection during pregnancy? I'm 34 weeks and in constant pain, but am trying to avoid the hospital unless I absolutely need to. Is there any home remedies I can try?
Avatar f tn Any ladies have an ear infection while pg? I, of course, can't get ahold of my dr or her assistant to ask what is safe to take for an ear infection!
