Avatar f tn Didnt u get the flu shot?
Avatar n tn I'm taking amoxicillin and my cheeks are very red, like i'm sunburnt, and very hot. It's only on my cheeks no where else on my face or body. I've been givien this same medicine many times and have never had this reaction, The only other thing I can think about is I was given a corticosteroid shot and nasal spray called Fluticasone. It's not shown as a side effect of the nasal spray, but could it be from one of these other medicines. Should I call my pharmacist or doctor?
Avatar f tn This is my 1st winter as an EMT running w/a co that services long-term care facilities. I did have a flu shot back in the fall. I don't know if I should blame the job & muddle on or go back to the doc. All I know is this is not normal for me & I am DESPERATE to get rid of the joint aches & fatigue that I will do anything to feel better. Any suggestions?
Avatar m tn It goes away for 8 hours after I take 2 tynenol, 1 mucin and 2 Echinacea and 1 amoxicillin. I get fever and dry cough back and I take the medicine again for another 8 hours relief. Also I'm not able to speak when I take amoxicillin and get very serious head ache. Also, I took TB skin test and was positive, but chest xray and blood reports were negative. I was not given prophylaxis though at the time. I like to know what to do.
Avatar n tn I had sinus infection and got Amoxicillin for it. Had diarrhea, then a rash all over stomach, back, thighs, then yeast infection. I stopped taking the Amoxicillin and the doctor told my husband I was allergic to Penicillin. A week later I vomited several times and had cramping (like the stomach flu) and now my forehead has broken out with an itchy ***** rash like poison oak! Could the rash be associated with the Amoxicillin or the Sinus infection?

Avatar f tn Hello, All the symptoms that your daughter is having are clearly a sign of doxycycline allergy.Doxycycline is not related to amoxicillin and sulfa drugs as it belongs to a different category of drugs(tetracyclines).Side effects of doxycycline are headache, dizziness, blurred vision, body aches, flu symptoms,skin rashes,chest tightness,respiratory difficulty,nausea,vomiting etc.
Avatar f tn 1 I have gilberts syndrom and bilirubin has been the only elevated test until now. Having no symtoms, stopped taking amoxicillin 2 weeks before test as prescribed for chest cold/flu, started vigour excercise 2 weeks before test, fasted lime i should before test. Why the elevated levels?
Avatar f tn I got the flu shot and the whooping cough vaccine. I didn't get them both on the same day though.
8650265 tn?1421565413 Im 8 weeks and just getting over brochitis. Was given amoxicillin and told benylin dm for cough syrup was ok. I feel your worry I hate taking stuff but for this I had to as I was hacking all night and now have a severe pulled muscles by my right lung so I cant breath or move and coughing is a nightmare lol. Fun times when your pregnant and sick. The doc will only give you what you can have so dont worry much.
Avatar f tn Hello last week i had the flu shot on thursday and just two days ago i been getting pin and needles feeling my toes and hands and also bad back ache and itching i went to my dr and he says it just a bad reaction from the flu shot and i hope he is right im scared and dont want it to be anything serious
Avatar f tn Wow, thanks, yeah people in the medical field think you should take medicine for Everything it seems. Im still opting out, although i am going to get some immune building vitamins.
Avatar f tn my edd is Jan 19 , and it will be flu season. I'm conflicted on getting the flu shot. Does anyone know the pros and cons of the flu shot and If they're getting it ?
Avatar f tn I haven't had my flu shot for over three years. My immune system is amazing. I literally never get sick. Probably because it built up so well when I got sick a lot as a child. My parents were not super protective over me playing in dirt or other things. I haven't had the flu, a cold, or anything else in years. A few years ago when I DID get my flu shot, I got sick for like two weeks immediately afterwards. Puking, fever, everything.
Avatar f tn My last dr was an @$$ and had basically forced me to set an appt for the flu shot. My entire life i havemt gotten the flu shot, and YET i havemt got the flu. I plan on canceling the appt. Im very healthy with a very good immume system. Am i just wrong?
Avatar n tn The flu shot does not cause the flu. If you get the flu after getting the shot you either had the flu before the shot, it wasn't in your system good when you got it, or you caught a strain they didn't make a vaccine for. I would rather get the shot and know I am trying to prevent myself from getting sick and giving it to my baby. The flu is deadly for infants. It's just like the whooping cough shot. Both are very important.
Avatar f tn Im a ftm and my dr is recommending a flu shot but i keep hearing and reading all these bad things about it and now im wondering if it is even worth getting one. Has any of you got it and if so does it really help so you dont get sick?
Avatar f tn I didn't. No flu yet. I've been around the flu, and I've been around toddlers, but I've never gotten the flu before and didn't want to get the shot if I felt it was unnecessary.
Avatar f tn I did not want to get the flu shot. I never ever get the flu (knock on wood) and I'm scared that if I do, I will get sick. My Dr is addoment about getting it. I'm 10.5 weeks and was going to wait until I'm in my 2nd trimester. What are your thoughts??
Avatar f tn I've had both. And I'm fine. Flu shot hurt more than the tdap shot.
Avatar f tn I had the flu shot before and for the first time in my life i got the flu a week later, it was horrible. Thank god i wasnt prego but i do not believe in flu shots after that. And everyone i know who had the shot got the flu soon after.
Avatar f tn I haven't had a flu shot since h.s. (over 10 years ago) and reluctant to get one while pregnant. I just havent cared to get one and have never gotten seriously sick. Any words of wisdom? And what other shots would I need before the birth? I appreciate it!
5770739 tn?1382315166 The flu shot is for respiratory flu, not for the stomach flu. A girl I knew got the flu toward the end of her pregnancy and it turned into pneumonia and she had to have an emergency c section at like 30 weeks and she ended up passing away from it never having been able to hold her baby because they had to put her in a medical induced coma. That being said, I have gotten a flu shot with every pregnancy and every year to protect my little ones with weak immune systems.
Avatar f tn This is my 4th child and I never got the flu shot and when they asked me last week I said no...Only my oldest 2 get the flu shot and thats because they have asthma and there Dr. Recommended they get it for that reason and every time they get sick from it but my youngest son is 3 and he has never had the shot and he is fine. unless this baby has asthma he won't be getting the shot either.
1117137 tn?1345227905 I went to the OB today and he gave me the flu shot there. He said it was soooo important because idont want to get sick and have it affect the baby.
3053649 tn?1356365017 I didn't do it. The flu shot in Australia only stops three flu strains and there are hundreds. So I didn't see a point. Plus my cousin had it and then miscarried and even though the doc says it didn't cause it, it plays on her mind and made me think I don't really need it.
9187090 tn?1406264221 I didn't get the flu shot. And when you get the flu shot you CAN get sick from it since they are injecting the virus into your system. I got the tdap shot and did the gestantional diabetes teat and that's it. I declined everything else.
