Avatar m tn My heart beat is erratic most of the time anyway but when I tried taking flagyl for campylobacter, it didn't affect my heart at all. I just got extremely sick and intestinal issues worsened. They had to switch me.

Avatar m tn BV stands for bacterial vaginosis. It can only be treated by your physician with antibiotics. I've never heard of cold tubes used and really can't imagine that type of thing works. You need to see your doctor for flagyl, or generic name, metronidazole which is the standard of care for treating bacterial vaginosis.
Avatar f tn So just a quick question for all the women that have taken this before for bacterial vaginosis. So I started this a couple days ago and today I had a heavy amount of sticky discharge. This isnt normal for me. So I was wondering if this has happend to anyone else. Is it just the antibiotic clearing the infection.
Avatar f tn I am finishing up 10 days of metronidazole (generic flagyl) for bv. I found out I had bv because I started having contractions. I'm 23wks today. I was told it is a very common infection and it is easily contracted. Not only I but my partner needed to be treated because it can be passed back n forth, but it is not an std. I am a registered pharmacy tech and looking in my pill description book it says nothing about causing miscarriage.
Avatar f tn I was given flagyl and levofloxcin for uti but I forgot to take flagyl. Though my pain has lessened and I went to doc she gave me Metronidazole Vaginal Gel for 5 days.
Avatar n tn I have seen that it is harder to detect in men. I have also seen that one does of either Metronidazole (Flagyl®) and/or tinidazole (Tindamax®) is sufficient enough. Do you or anyone else know if this is true? Of course I will ask when I call, but I was just curious.
Avatar n tn I have been takng Flagyl (Metronidazole) for 5 days now and the past 3 days the right hand goes numb around the pinky and ring finger and all along that side up my arm. should i be worried? or stop taking the medication? im only supposed to take it for 2 more days.
Avatar n tn After my hospital stay, I was sent home with Clindamycin and Ampicillin capsules to take for 5 days. I had diarrhea for 4 days straight and called the Dr. She told me to stop taking the medicines immediately. About 4 days later, I was stricken with severe abdominal cramping, nausea and watery diarrhea. I was rushed to the emergency room and had CT scans, abdominal XRays, and stool samples taken. I was diagnosed with C. diff.
Avatar n tn thanks for the comments. but, i tried to take the metronidazole, and it made me so ill. nausea all day long, migraines, dizzyness, etc.... do you know if there is another drug that would clear it up without the side effects?? thanks!!
Avatar n tn My doctor prescribed me metronidazole because of my yeast infection but I'm really "iffy" about taking it because I don't want to harm my baby. Have any of u guys taken metronidazole while pregnant ?
Avatar f tn The best two antibiotics to use for the types of bacteria that usually cause bacterial vaginosis, are Clindamycin and Flagyl (metronidazole). Sometimes women have allergies to specific medications and we need to use others that are less optimal, but the best results are usually achieved with the proper antibiotics for the condition. Good luck!
Avatar f tn It all started when I was proscribed Flagyl, commonly known as Metronidazole, for a stomach parasite in late August. I was told to take 500 mg, 3 times a day for a week. Up until the 5th night, I was experiencing "common" symptoms such as lack of appetite, nausea, etc. I also happened to be working a night shift, as I was a summer student at a Grain Elevator, which didn't help matters. On the 5th night, I called in sick as I had a headache and was feeling generally unwell.
385161 tn?1270081218 I need some advice...anyone take flagyl or metronidazole vaginal inserts for BV? is this doctor correct? Should I demand more cultures or just take the meds? What happens if I don't treat BV, i've heard it can cause preterm labor, and raises risk of miscarriage, but is it safe to treat now???? HELP> > > ps. is it time for a new doctor?
Avatar n tn I took only 2 days' worth of flagyl (metronidazole) 3 months ago. After the first 2 days, I noticed tingling/burning in my feet, so I didn't take anymore. It initially lasted about 3 days. Then, I was completely symptom-free for a month. Then, the pain came back. It's been off and on since, but has seemed to have gotten more intense and is sometimes in my hands as well.
Avatar n tn Did your vet do a float with stool that you should have taken in with you? I have always boiled ground meat (drained the grease) and cooked rice & fed for about 4 days. that has always helped mine, It almost sounds like a pancreatic flare up which happens when they are not used to the fat in their diet. metronidazole / flagyl SHOULD be short term and it shouldn't hurt.
Avatar f tn Went in for my normal check up and doc told me I have a bacterial Infection, She Prescribed me "Metronidazole". I was reading up on it and it says not to be used during pregnancy! Kind of worries me, any of u ladies ever had this stuff prescribed to u?
Avatar f tn I take metronidazole if that's flagyl and I have bv my doctor told me it's okay to take it while pregnant
Avatar f tn After 4 more hosp admissions and an anterior resection and a defunctioning ileostomy for six months I question whether or not the gentamycin and cefuroxime caused more damage than good and why I wasnt given vancomyin as soon as it was know I was c diff pos as I had been metronidazole for several weeks by that time.
Avatar n tn Hi I could not find the related post, but also had neuropathy, pins and needles, gastric symptoms, balance problems and so forth after use of Flagyl (for 7 days). Wrote about it a year ago in Neuro doctor's forum. In my case it seems something else reacted with the Flagyl (viral toxin, bacterial toxin, Ciguatera... this is what doctors have said so far) and made everything much worse. One allergy specialist said Flagyl alone could have easily caused the symptoms.
Avatar m tn He has told me to take the 2g of flagyl (metronidazolum), 400mg eficef (cefixima) and 100mg doxiciclina at the same time for the first dosage; i then take the doxiciclina 100mg, twice a dayfor 10 days. Is it ok to take a large dose all at once for the first dose?
7052683 tn?1392938795 but you need a this high cell count for a specific bacteria...the bacteria that Flagyl is usually prescribed for... http://www.iherb.com/Sedona-Labs-iFlora-Multi-Probiotic-Powder-1-48-oz-42-g/7408?at=0 this is in powder form and can use up to 1/16 teas. per day for a cat. you should also use Slippery Elm bark to soothe his tummy.....will not work on the gut bacteria but is really good to sooth ulcers in humans even http://www.iherb.
Avatar f tn Next time about a year later still having the smelly discharge i took flagyl. The symsymptoms disappeared for another 4 months and came back again. It is possible i have been reinfected somewhere along the way. So this time i took a single dose of metronidazole again.symptoms seem to clear out and now on my 4th day of period i had a lot of itching and the fishy smell came back. Is there anything as chronic trich or could it maybe be BV or just a yeast infection?
