Avatar m tn They didnt give me anything so i went back to the gyno , he said everything is fine with my genital area, it must be a UTI, so he gave me levofloxacin , uva ursi and D-mannose. My symptoms got better a little bit, i dont feel like my bladder is going to kill me anytime, but still i need to urinate frequently. After the levofloxacin, i went to a diffenrent urologist, a private one and asked him about interstitial cystitis , but he said that it is a really bad UTI and i should take more uva ursi.

Avatar m tn I felt better alright but after i drank alcohol again i felt a pain in my lower back and some itching in my penis and a clear watery discharge although minimal. When I went back to my urologist, he said that im already cured and that he also said that maybe im just worrying too much. After that however ive experienced some itching in my urethra and this time it woke me up in the middle of the night. When i milked my penis, again i discovered a clear watery discharge.
Avatar f tn I and my husband received IV continous infusion Clindamycin treatment times 7 days and the followup testing showed we were both positive with clamydia. I still have pain in my right kidney that I usually have with chronic UTI. I am taking Cipro now for E. facelis but infection will not go away. It is too the point I don't want to have intercourse with my husband. Also did two months of oral macrobid and clarithomycin both I and my husband. Don't know what to do please advise.

Avatar f tn I am on third type of antibiotic Levofloxacin. Doctors say I have UTI.This is my second course of antibiotics in one month but sympyoms are recurring in last one month. I read that HSV can cause UTI. I haven't got any relief with antibiotics. My Igg for hsv 1 was positive 3.15 and hsv 2 after one month of exposure was negative. Should I do another test this week that's at 7th week. These symptoms won't let me wait for ome more week. Kindly advice.
Avatar f tn I started 100 mg doxycycline (big mistake) without taking any test. I then visited my go who put me on one week 250 my levofloxacin and pyridium. The pain did not go away. I visited. A urologist who conducted two rounds of blood and urine test- no infection. A week after doxy dosage I took a std test for gonorrhoea chlamydia and ureaplasma. All negative. I was worried about herpes all along and Borge the urologist and venrealogist said unlikely.
Avatar m tn UTI you can get without anything sexual.
Avatar m tn He gave me some antibiotics (Levofloxacin 250mg x 2 for 7 days) to take care of any potential UTI and told me to monitor my penis in the coming time (didn't say for how long) for any herpes symptoms. I was kind of relieved after seeing your posts here. But since I have been told I am at risk it will be nice to get a second opinion from an expert. (someone really understand STD and know what is safe or not) I will be seeing my wife again on Saturday ..
Avatar n tn After 2 weeks I noticed pain in left testicle, diagnosed as epididymitis, antibiotics (Levofloxacin) prescribed and had an immediate effect in reducing pain, but 2 months later the problems have not resolved completely. I still have an increased urge/frequency to urinate (every 3-4 hours), occasional tingling/burning in urethra and a dull pain in the left testicle which can vary from irritating to barely noticeable. I'm able to sleep through the night without getting up to urinate.
Avatar m tn I’m not sexually active it started at my left testicle first antibiotic is levofloxacin for 10 days after that naproxen for 5 days thought I’m getting better then 2 days later pain and swelling went back. My doctor suggested me to a urologist but it’s been 3 weeks and never got a call. I went to emergency for another antibiotic refferal.
Avatar m tn My symptoms are mild and have included irritation in my urithra and occasional instances of having to pee in the middle of the night. I was prescribed an antibiotic levofloxacin and have finished the course about three days ago. These symptoms still persist. Is this just paranoia or is it possible that I have received a false negative? What could be the clause of this? Is it safe to resume sex with my partner? Should I be retested?
Avatar m tn I now understand that levofloxacin can cure E. I thought it had to cure C or G, which would in turn cure my E. But it seems, though I'd like someone to confirm it if you have any knowledge, that levofloxacin directly cures E. New question: Epididymitis was cured by levofloxacin in 2 days but why and what caused my E in the first place? Theory: Maybe my scrotum skin was weak during sex and it got infected during the sex process, but not by any STD.
Avatar f tn Headaces with antibiotics? I been on two types of antibiotics for 6 days now for my UTI. At 1st I was on Sulfameth/ Trimethoprim for 5 days and now I'm on Levoflaxacin. I been having headaces ever since I started them. I also been having this pain on my left side of my head. Can this be a side effect? I never get headaches. I'm very worried. I'll call dr tmrw.
1279758 tn?1282813393 I am 32 years old male, two months back i woke up with urgent need to urinate and the frequency increased to 10 times in an hour. I had body ache slight feverand headache. since I was not accessible to good doc i suspected UTI and to cipro for three days. i got relieved from my problem but exactly after 10 days i suffered from similar problem but quite severe. i had blood in my urine alongwith witish discharge.
Avatar m tn I had really bad urinary pain and they said I do not have bacteria in my urine (which is prob masked) and asked about STDs. I have a yeast infection from the antibiotics and am taking antifungal meds now and feel a little better. My question is if my ex did have something (which i'm still certain he didn't) would all of those antibiotics have killed whatever was in my body?
Avatar n tn If I masterbated 10 to 15 minutes before a urinalysis was performed is it possible that the blood in the sample could be mistaken as urine when in fact it is the semen. If so, doesnt that mean that the inflammation that was diagnosed on my urethra in fact be an inflammation of my prostate, because I am almost convinced that my excessive drinking and use of adderall amphetamines are damaging my prostate, leading to my problems. Thanks!
Avatar m tn Today results were out and and it was found that I had PROTEUS MIRABILIS in urine. My doctor said it is sexually transmitted and he told to take Levofloxacin 500 mg daily for 7 days. now, WHAT OTHER INFECTION RISKS DO I HAVE?? i used two condoms and very properly but i washed my genitals with soap after 10 minutes after sex. Did i get this infection due to vaginal fluid that would have remained on my public area, which could have come in contact with tip of my penis??
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 f tn My doctor originally thought it was a UTI and gave me some antibiotics for that. I took them and started to feel slightly better, but the he called me a few days later and said my STD test came back positive for Chlamydia. He prescribed me (4) 250mg Azithromycin. I took those, and my symptoms started to clear. A few days went by and I felt fine. Then I started to get sharp pains in my left testicle.
Avatar m tn I have had 2 very mild dribbling discharges and a big one after completion of leprofloxcin. Related to doctors I went to a walk in clinic at 3 week mark(neg results). Seen my family doctor and got tested for UTI, trichmonisisas, HIV(all neg). Saw Urologist got a pres. of levofloxacin which didn't do anything for the burning. Currently on doxycycline for 1 week. During last 4 months had one week of relief. Last visit to urologist took a swab test and still waiting on results from lab.
Avatar m tn It took about 1-2 days and I started having UTI kind of symptoms. Problems urinating and a little bit of stinging/burning sensation while doing so. I had plenty of STD tests taken (some of them twice) and everything except one turned out to be negative. Ureaplasma parvum was found. My doctor was pretty sure that my symptoms were probably not related to it and he also added that it can be found from healthy people as well. Anyway a 10 day doxycycline treatment was started.
Avatar f tn The urologist assistante just said that the bacteria is common but if I have pain i should take the antibiotics which the doc recommends. The antibiotic levofloxacin is the first choice in that case. levofloxacin is mentioned on the lab result too as sensibel. Others are resistend.
Avatar m tn I'm getting really worried by the increase in severity of the seizures I've been having. They happen only when I am going to sleep, whether laying flat on my side or snoozing. It's more than hypnic jerks. First occurance was a couple of weeks ago when I fell asleep on the train. It felt like going down in a big dipper then up again. I had some twitching and crawling sensations around my calves and feet after.
Avatar f tn Very interneting. I would bring this up with your provider. The urine color can be some times cloudy when mixed with other things like toilet cleaners. But you should have your doctor keep checking your urine for UTI. UTI's are common cause and this could also be a kidney infection. Your doctor may need to do lab work to check you out more. So keep in contact with him and let him know what is going on.
