antibiotics

Avatar n tn Medications work the same way for people living with HIV as they do for people that don't have HIV. Where ever you heard different is totally incorrect. Find a better place to get your information.
Avatar n tn Why do antibiotics not work with HIV / AIDS. Please be biologically specific. THANK YOU!!!!!
Avatar m tn Would taking multiple courses of antibiotics during the past 6 months (on and off) due to chronic sinusitis affect my bodies production of antibodies for HIV? (why or why not) My test was 116 days post exposure. Do i need more testing?
Avatar m tn Hi. I have one quick question. Can antibiotics affect the result of HIV test? If person start to take antibiotics 5 week after exposure and goes to the test at 6 week mark, can antibiotics affect the result? Thank you.
Avatar f tn A Nonreactive HIV-1/2 antibody result does not exclude HIV infection since the time frame for seroconversion is variable. If acute HIV infection is suspected, antibody retesting and nucleic acid amplicfication testing is recommended. Anyone care to interpret? I know that non-reactive means negative, correct? But Vance, you don't think this is conclusive? You mean I have to go throught this stress in a few weeks again?
Avatar n tn Hi guys, as i have a flu and i am eating antibiotic tablets and i got injections during this week. Does this antibiotics medicine affects my HIV result positively as my antibiotic will be high in my body or not. please help i just wanna to do a test for mind peace as my HIV risk Zero because i am just affraid of a scratch from a girl.
Avatar f tn ER doctors do not prescribe antibiotics for the flu, which is viral. They are treating you for a possible bacterial infection, which HIV is NOT. It's possible the antibiotics are causing some negative side effects or they are not working against whatever possible bacterial infection you may have. If you do not feel better soon, or continue to feel worse and have a fever, I suggest you see your doctor for further testing, or return to the ER.

Avatar m tn Hello, I’m from Turkey and 22 years old. My English is not good enough sorry for about that. 27 May, I gave a man blowjob (I don’t know he is HIV+\-). And he ejaculated in my mouth and I swallowed his semen. But unfortunately my mouth health is not good enough. I have tooth problems. 4-5 tooth decay, bleeding gum. 21th day I tested HIV ab/ag and I was negative. But I don’t know anything about window period. How accurate is the test being at 21th?

Avatar m tn Your first question - you are HIV negative and the antibiotics would not make any difference at all to the results. You are fine. With reference to the further questions, you do not need to test again. The HIV tests you have had are solid and negative. Whatever your wife has is not HIV contracted from you. You're mind is working disporportionate overtime. Common things are common and it is overwhelmingly likely that she just has a minor infection.
Avatar f tn About 6 months ago I was tested positive for gonorrhea then was given heavy antibiotics 1g ceftrixone injection plus 1g azythromycin for 3 consecutive days. From last one week I have been feeling intermittent needle like pain (throbbing) in penis and in an area (could be perineum)around testicles and recently a bladder pain while urinating. Could that still be gonorrhea? Was it never gone? Also I got tested for several other STD's (chlamydia, sypilis, herpes, HIV) but was tested negative.
Avatar m tn I used a condom, and I have no visible symptoms of STDs. But I am still worried, and I am wondering if there is any preventive care for STDs (series of shots of antibiotics, etc.)?
Avatar m tn Hi, with EBV you would have a bad sore throat, swollen lymph nodes in the neck area, and fever and fatigue. I wouldn't worry about HIV if you were negative after 3 months. Antibiotics don't work on a virus if it is EBV. They usually test you for mono and they have a test called a mono spot test plus a complete blood count to look for atypical lymphocytes and they could do EBV IgM and IgG. But EBV doesn't give you diarrhea, and gas usually no dizzyness.
Avatar n tn i went to see a doctor he gave me some antibiotics for my throat and abdominal pains. i was ok after taking the antibiotics for the abdominal pains but the sore throat became very severe. this sore throat is quite different from all sore throats i have experienced and has lasted for a longer period of time. i don't feel pains when i swallow but it itches and become very dry. swallowing keeps it better.
Avatar m tn With regards to the oral sex it is considered by many experts that oral sex is zero risk for hiv transmission.I would encourage you to test for more common STD,s but testing for HIV is not required.All the best.Ciao.
Avatar m tn Does that mean if i had symptoms of hiv for a week, i would for sure test positive after a 1 week from when the symptoms began?
Avatar f tn Recently had an issue with testicule pain and tried doing some research online, ended up going to the doctors and was diagnosed with epididymitis and was tested for STD’s everything came back normal and prescribed antibiotics. A few days later I noticed blood work order for HIV and other STD’s, which gave me really bad anxiety for about a week (sweating, issues sleeping, impending doom thoughts).
Avatar n tn WERE YOU TESTED FOR AN EAR OR SINUS INFECTION? ANTIBIOTICS WORK FOR THE BODY PARTS THEY ARE SPECIFICALLY PRESCRIBED. STAY ON THIS AND HOPE YOU FIND YOUR ANSWERS.
Avatar n tn Teak, do you think I am worrying about nothing? and finally, if I go for an endoscopy, would HIV show up in that test on the very off chance it was there??Excuse my ignorance. I know the doctors all say 6 a negative test 6-8 weeks post exposure generally means one is fine. Respond if u can Teak. I dont want any smart comments from people. Thanks very much.
