Avatar m tn Welcome back to the Forum. Are you still in the adult industry? If so, are you sure that part of what is going on here does not reflect re-exposure? It seems that if you are still in the adult industry the issue of re-exposure is a potential problem. As for your specific problems, let me start with another question. Are you sure you had chlamydia, as identified by a test each time or where you treated for NGU or another chlamydia-associated problem.
Avatar m tn t offer at the time and this test confirmed i have mycoplasma gen. He also took a swab to develop in the lab and he said moxifloxacin 400mg was fast effective to the bacteria but there was a part of the bacteria that was resistant. He still gave me a 20 day course and its been a week since i've finished it and yes the infection is still there. My symptoms is not as bad as some other sufferers, slight discharge in the mornings and tingles around the tip but not as much as before.
Avatar m tn But you can get a lot of STDs from oral sex. There is more bacteria than Chlamydia and Gonnorhea those are just only of the two that are easily identifiable. If you think you have an STD you probably do. Especially if discharge or discomfort is present and tests say negative. I had something called Mycoplasma Genitalium for 16 years and it caused me years of discomfort and what I thought was "reoccurring chronic prostatitis" prostatitis was alright..
Avatar m tn I had mycoplasma genitalium for 16 years. I knew something was wrong started as clear discharge became epydymitis and prostatitis I dealt with it in agony told nothing was wrong even was part of a chronic bacterial prostatitis study. Fast forward ten more years as I ignored it went on my life I gave it to someone who gave it to a guy in the British army. And he was given pristinamycin and diagnosed with mycoplasma genitalium a STD they do not test for in the U.S.
Avatar m tn hey there, badgerMR. to be honest, i took metronidazol just one day after i took my azythromicine (i know, shouldn't self-diagnose), but I took them anyway. and it did not help. I know there's an alternative which is tinidazol but I'm just saying I did take antibiotics against MG myself and it did not help the symptom...
Avatar m tn If it persists long enough to the point it becomes prostatitis it can take 6 weeks to 9 weeks on a fluoroquinolone such as Moxifloxacin. I had bacterial prostatitis for 16 years following oral sex with a female. I was told by numerous doctors after 6 years I gave up. I saw an article a few months ago about MG and how Moxifloxacin, in combination with rifampicin would cure it.
Avatar m tn Had prostate checked for prostatitis, no uti either. My question is, what is it?? Can it possibly be some kind of yeast? Seems like i have been tested for all else with urinalysis and blood tests. Please anyone, i need help. It is driving me up the wall. Please any ideas?
Avatar m tn There seems to be only 1 antibiotic that works once it becomes prostatitis and that is Avelox also known as Moxifloxacin. Now if you happen to have them, even more, rarer form than you require Pristinamycin and it is not available in the united states but it is able to be received via the right channels from India if you know where to look.
Avatar m tn azrithromycin 1gm, doxycycline 14 days, flagyl, cipro. Nothing helped. He gave me an antifungal afterwards. Then he gave me moxifloxacin for 10 days. Again got tested after antibiotics were out of my system for 14 days, and everything negative. In the meantime, penis is very sensitive still almost two months later. Rash is the same. Saw 3 dermatologists, one thinks penile psoriasis, one thinks nothing, one thinks dermatitis....lovely.
Avatar m tn Welcome back. These are a new set of questions so I will address them here using the same numbers that you have used above. 1. The passage of 17 days since your last antibiotics and your most recent testing is more than enough to make your testing reliable. If you were infected, the tests should have detected an infection. Negative tests should also be believed. 2.
788075 tn?1366513312 t work, I would do moxifloxacin for 2-3 weeks, which would cover the mycoplasmas as well as prostatitis.
Avatar m tn If it turns out you do have M. genitalium and you are resistant you an take 10 days of moxifloxacin 400mg daily. Also, if you are negative you could have non specific urethritis which can be caused by M.Genitalium, but also Ureaplasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma hominis, HSV, Adenovirus or Trichomonas. So other drugs you can take for them are not Azitro alone but you should take Aithro with Tinidazole or Tinidazole with doxycycline.
Avatar m tn And most if not all cases would have been eradicated by one or more of the antibiotics you had, especially moxifloxacin. It is possible that testing for MG will become routine in the future, but not yet. To your specific questions: 1-3) Recurrences are common with NGU, but not usually for 3 years. I would guess you have had a prostate problem, rather than recurrent NGU per se. It is unlikely that your problem is due to persistent or recurrent M genitalium.
Avatar m tn if you finally get a positive, the FDA just approve Lefamulin, which has high activity against MG in vitro. If you’ve failed Moxifloxacin, I’d push for a minocycline/Lefamulin combo. It seriously is the only bit of hope that has come along in many years.
Avatar m tn doxycycline, azithromycin and moxifloxacin. The first two failed to clear my infection and now I have two days that I finished the moxifloxacin 400 mg( 10 days treatment) clearing my symptoms. My question is, Is it possible for the bacteria to reoccur after the moxifloxacin treatment? And if yes what other option are there?
Avatar m tn if the problem persists or recurs, give the alternate drug plus metronidazole (Flagyl) or tinidazole (Tindamax) to cover trichomonas; and for still more recurrences, moxifloxacin, apparently the best drug for M. genitalium. If your treatments have been different than this, discuss it with your doctor. Some cases at this stage may be due to prostatitis. Infection due to unusual bacteria may need to be checked out.
Avatar m tn Dr, I am wondering at what stage NSU is no longer a risk. I ask because I have recurring NSU for a number of yrs. My GUM clinic has reassured me there is no reason to be concerned at this stage. I attended them numerous occasions. Some times there has >5 WBCs, on other occasions there was no NSU (i.e. <5 WBCs). No Gon or Chl found in any tests. In summary: 1st visit: NSU - Took 1g zithromax - wasn't called back.
Avatar m tn Welcome to the forum. Your symptoms are nonspecific -- i.e. they don't point strongly to any particular problem. The only STD related condition that could cause testicular pain and swelling is epididymitis (testicular infection), and the only STDs known to cause it are chlamydia and gonorrhea. With those tests being negative, sexually acquried epididymitis has been definitively ruled out. Further, real epididymitis is a much more dramatic, inflamed condition than you have described.
Avatar n tn A recent study was done to show that Myco was only erradicated by 85% of those on the Azithro regiment described, however Avelox ( Moxifloxacin) killed Myco in all cases. Routine is to try described Azithro regimen first and if symtoms still exist Moxifloxacin. Why? I guess so that Myco doesn't become Moxifloxacin resistant. Save the bugs, kill the patient kind of thing. I say take the 400mg a day X 10 day regiment of Moxifloxacin and help yourself.
Avatar f tn If you have a persistent mycoplasma genitalium infection that has failed azithromycin and Moxifloxacin, urge your doctor to try Lefamulin (Xenleta). This is a new and very promising antibiotic and could be the hope those need for untreatable mycoplasma infections. Lefamulin is now available through Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy. Please look into this and demand that you try it.
Avatar f tn Cure rates with moxifloxacin are 100% According to some info I’ve found, and is used after Doxy and az. So id press to get moxifloxacin. moxifloxacin 400 mg daily for 7 to 14 days is the preferred antibiotic regimen.
Avatar f tn I had a DNA testing on sperm and urine Candida came back positive but antifungals didn’t do anything Now I am on a cocktail of Moxifloxacin and doxycycline feeling terrible and SO exhausted on 3rd week of it doing nothing. It’s to treat potential mycoplasma genitalium. I’ve been praying to not wake up everyday and I’m totally desperate .
Avatar m tn I self medicated with cipro figuring this was a reoccurence of prostatitis as I have been previosuly diag. w/boggy prostate and white cells in prostatic secretions. This same day I had vaginal sex with sig. other. Symp did not improve so went to clinic on Tues 2/9, tests for chlam, gc, trich, all neg. A genital culture (swab), came back as "white cells seen", no organism growth.Urine cult. (first catch) reported value leukocytes=small. Treated with azith 1g and 500mg cipro.
Avatar m tn But the doctor mentioned that my white blood cell count is slightly higher than normal ( WBC count taken from the swabs, not from my blood work) and mentioned that there might be an infection so she prescribed Avelox (Moxifloxacin), 4 x 400mg once daily. The background is, I am Chinese male, been with my girlfriend for about a year and both of us have been loyal and we were both asymptomatic before this event.
Avatar m tn Fourth and perhaps most important, you should be evaluated for prostatitis, i.e. inflammation of the prostate gland. Although not an STD in the usual sense, such prostate problems can follow urethral infection. Some prostatitis is caused by UTI bacteria, especially with low counts of bacteria as noted above. Others are classified as "nonspecific" or "nonbacterial".
