Avatar f tn Thank you for the advice. I did get a swab before and it said I had some sort of strep non A, C, or G group related. The pain is only on the right side and shoots up to my ear and neck. Is it possible it came back even while on antibiotics? The augmentin should kill it, which is why I was prescribed that.
Avatar n tn Initially, they did a rapid strep test about 4 days after i was showing the symptoms and it came back negative for strep. I was & still am, noticing white lines on the inside of my cheeks, looks like spider veins throughout my mouth, red tonsils, and small flesh colored bumps on the back of my throat. every morning i've been having a bad case of post nasal drip, and it feels like i always need to clear my throat.
Avatar m tn I’m late answering this but i was diagnosed with strep even though i suspected mono but the doctor put me on amoxicillin anyways. I had taken seven days of amoxicillin feeling the sickest i had ever felt but developed no rash so the doctor didn’t worry. After 7 days of being on amoxicillin my throat finally felt better and i did not feel sick anymore. I went to sleep that night and woke up at 5am itching and had developed a full body rash over night.
Avatar f tn I was prescribed Amoxicillin a couple days ago for strep throat and an ear infection and when I opened the bottle to take it I noticed that it smelled bad. I don't know if it's normal or not so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Avatar n tn I am suffering from Body pain and Strep throat . Took amoxicillin for a week and then visited Doctor he put me on azithromycin for 3 days but today is the fourth day still i feel the same.
Avatar f tn I was tested for strep and mono. Strep came back positive (Strep C) and negative for mono. I was prescribed amoxicillin and was feeling much better on day 3 until I developed a horrible yeast infection. I was then prescribed the one dose of fluconazole and the yeast infection was cleared. My original symptoms were gone so I didn't bother taking the rest of the antibiotic. (I know, my fault).
3218865 tn?1346947351 Im 39+3 and I have strep and I got put on amoxicillin. if u do get medicine for it it could get worse.
Avatar m tn I was not tested for strep or for any STDs the office i was diagnosed with acute pharyngitis but i am concerned that this may not be the case. I was wondering if i was to have an STD would this medication cure what i have or should i go back to the clinic to make sure.
Avatar m tn So I had Strep Throat over the weekend. Seen my doctor and he put me on Amoxicillin. My strep cleared up for the most part (the white crap all over my throat). Throat is still sore and have ulcers in a few places around my mouth. Not to worried about that, what does worry me is now my gums are killing me. I cannot even tough them with a brush. No blood as of yet from them. Is this the last of the infection retreating?
290867 tn?1333569278 Does anyone know if amoxicillin is safe to take during pregnancy. I am 19 weeks 2 Days and I am concerned. I went to my primary care physician because I have been having a sore throat and really bad headaches. My ob said there is nothing he can do because its really not pregnancy related and its gotten to the point of unbareable. He said I had a bad viral infection and strep throat. I am just really concerned about taking any meds while im preggo.
Avatar n tn Hi and sorry you are ill. Do you still have the sore throat? Do you have a high fever? Usually, with a strep throat you don't have a cough or other symptoms. So this sounds like a virus rather than a strep throat. So, when you went it to the doctor what were your symptoms to start with? If you only had pus in the throat and a sore throat with a fever you had strep throat. Then if they did a strep test and it was positive the antibiotics didn't help the sore throat?
Avatar f tn They gave me amoxicillin for ten days scared it wld hurt baby but if the doctor recommended then it has to b safe right. ?
1697869 tn?1306766843 Okay guys. I'm freaking out because I found out a 4 weeks I was pregnant, then at 5 I got strep throat. Dr. prescribed Amoxicillin and I took it. Now, looking back I'm really really afraid I may have hurt my baby (I'm 9 weeks now) I understand that I had to take it or it the strep could have hurt the baby. Now, to top it all off, I got a yeast infection from the antibiotics and I don't know what to do. I'm mortified at the idea of taking another medicine. HELP!!!!!!!!!!
Avatar f tn I was taking Amoxicillin 875 mg twice a day for ten days for a strep infection. I have been taking Microgestin Fe 1/20 for a year. No where on the Amoxicillin bottle did it warn about messing with birth control. I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend within the first couple of days of taking Amoxicillin. Now my period is late and I am concerned that I may be pregnant. What are my chances?
Avatar f tn I have strep and I’ve been taken amoxicillin for 2 days now and I found a swollen lymph node around my ground. It’s red? Could it be the strep?
Avatar m tn I also have been told I am basically a carrier for strep I test positive every time and the antibiotics don't seem to do crap they run out before I get better! I also had sores all over my body one time from what I read online I would say I had Scarlet fever but the doctor said its exactly like scarlet fever but its not?
Avatar f tn Went to Little Clinic, the APRN noticed white spots on my throat, said it was likely Strep (although I had no sore throat) but that it was too soon to test, started me on Amoxicillin anyways. I felt better a day after taking them and finished the round. The next morning after finishing the amox, after taking them for almost a week, I noticed a slight rash. It ended up getting worse, started on my chest and back, and eventually spread to arms, hands, feet.
Avatar m tn Day 3 on Amoxicillin. no puss and the swelling seems to be going down. Tonsils are still pretty gross looking.
Avatar f tn Doctor, I was diagnosed (confirmed by rapid test) with strepthroat. The girl iI've been involved with insisted we continue kissing. After being on Amoxicillin for 12-24 hours she insisted on giving me oral sex. She said her throat feels fine and is having no issues. She performed oral sex for around 10 minutes, unprotected... Is there a risk of a strep infection genitally or urinary? I am still on antibiotics and have 3 more days left.
Avatar m tn I became sick 7 days ago and went to see doctor on 3rd day. He called it a flu. He also prescribed me amoxicillin, so that I can take it on 6th day if I do not get better. When I feel sick on 1st day, I had very high fever and followed by sore throat. I had fever entire time during first three days. Now I still have fever and sore throat, but two times in the day. It goes away for 8 hours after I take 2 tynenol, 1 mucin and 2 Echinacea and 1 amoxicillin.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with strep throat 4 days ago. My throat started feeling better after 24 hours and completely stopped hurting by 48 hours once I started taking amoxacillin, I noticed last night it was starting to hurt again and when I woke up this morning it's killing me. Last night I was a few hours late taking my amoxicillin could it be from that or has the medicine stop working?
Avatar f tn I went to the doctor and they did a strep stept which came out negative he prescribed me amoxicillin 500 mg 2 pills 2 timess day for 10 days for tonsilitis. I am now freaking out thinking i have an std. Ive been taking the amoxicillin for 2 days and it has cleared my throat quite a bit. Do you think i should go get tested? Or should i wait and see if it clears up. I am married and have had sex with my husband 2 times since the encounter with the stranger.
Avatar n tn About 6 weeks ago, I got a sore throat that escalated to bad ear/jaw pain to the right side of my face. It was the worst pain I have ever been in my life. I took tests for both strep throat and mono and they both came back negative. I was prescribed a Z-pack and I threw it up so I was prescribed me Amoxicillin (10 days; 875 mg tablet - 2 times a day) and the pain went away. Two days after I stopped the antibiotics the pain returned.
Avatar f tn Hi, I am on birth control and have been for two years now. I recently took amoxicillin for a strep throat for a few days and have been using a condom, as I always do. It's been less than a week since I took the amoxicillin and tonight the condom broke. Should I take plan B? Thank you.
Avatar f tn Again, he didn’t even seem sure about that, just that it came back negative for strep. Prescribed me amoxicillin. Not even sure it’s working. My fever is now at 99-100 and it’s been since he middle of the night on Wednesday. No rashes or anything. The main things have been high fever/chills and the back of my throat looks horrible with all the white and hurts a lot.
Avatar f tn Hello, i was diagnosed with strep throat and have been given amoxicillin to take twice a day for ten days. I noticed my gums are receding and making it very painful to eat, brush my teeth, etc. I also have a blister on my bottom lip, which I've never had before so could i possibly have an std? Or is this all caused by the strep and should go away with the antibiotics?
