242516 tn?1368223905 The flu has passed epidemic rates in much of the country, and if you don't have a cold, I'm sure you have a friend who has the sniffles, fever, chills, aches and pains of a viral upper respiratory infection. This is different from a bacterial infection such as sinusitis, bronchitis, or pneumonia. A viral infection doesn't improve with antibiotics as these infections do. A virus hijacks your own body's healthy cells and uses it to reproduce and spread.
Avatar f tn The tests are not all that accurate, and must be read in light of your symptoms and history. You should ask your MD about taking (more) doxycycline -- and tell him/her whether you stopped taking it before finishing the whole course as prescribed.
Avatar f tn Go get yourself some medicine I had bronchitis 8 weeks ago and after 3 antibiotics, 1 breathing treatment, & 2 inhalers we thought I was fine but I have been really sick for a week now and went to the ER today because I was dehydrated and thought my kids had given me the flu, turns out I have pneumonia.
Avatar f tn Hi Karen, I am a believer of treating them as soon as they are an infection ... that is my mom opinion raising 4 kids oldest is 17. I don't buy into waitng and seeing .. not with the history of my kids (asthma, bronchitis, et al) and GW's history ... with these kids they probably also suffer seasonal allergies and their mucous membranes are being challeneged already .... the antibiotic for a true infection can only help in the risk vs beneft dept. And, guess what .

Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with bipolar in 1998 and have been on lithium alone for ten years. Being adopted, I have no health history of my own, yet I have two sons. My oldest is almost 18 and I have never had him tested due to all the trauma of my own illness,(denial is big with me). I have had my suspiscions though, and I know my son has too. Does and illness like this tend to skip a generation or more likely to pass directly from parent to child?
Avatar f tn FROM ONE OF THE TOP UK MEDICAL UNIVERSITIES) BUT I CAN SEE NO LOGICAL REASON WHY A SIMPLE SINGLE LARGE DOSE OF PROPHYLACTIC ANTIBIOTIC (USUALLY AMOXICILLIN FAMILY) IF THE PATIENT CANNOT GIVE A FULL PREVIOUS MEDICAL HISTORY.
Avatar f tn prediabetic range is 101-125 fasting and I believe 140-150 post prandial. Do you have a history in your family, child drink excessively or urinate frequently at night? Is there a reason you are checking blood sugars? Need to call pediatrician and might have an A1C test done.
Avatar f tn This year I developed bronchitis in April and was sick for two months. After taking antibiotics, allergy meds and inhalers, I recovered. I continued on the allergy meds. A little over two months later the cough started up again. The doc put me back on Advair. I used it for two months and continued getting worse. I saw the doctor and he put me on Ventolin with my Advair and antibiotic. I saw him a week later worse and with thrush in my mouth and throat.
Avatar n tn A really good case history with binocular workup may be (and probably is) just as good in diagnosing it. It is definitely, 100% better that one could actually drive and read and text their buddies after they leave the exam room. Not to mention, depending on the drops, that you could be dilated for an entire day or even days! For the treatment of pseudomyopia, one might try and STOP wearing the glasses!
Avatar f tn Did you get him from a family, a breeder or pet store? If a family or breeder I would contact them to see if there is a history of seizures or disorder with either parents or any problems with puppies from the same litter. Have you taken him to the vet? If not I would make it a priority.
Avatar m tn However, my doctor said that after the pelvic exam and ultrasound, he did not suspect that I had PID and that a laparoscopy would be more definitive to diagnose it. I am almost done with the antibiotics and my symptoms have improved and I will follow up with him to re test for Chlamydia 10 days after I am finished with the antibiotics.
Avatar n tn I went to the doctor and I had H. Pylori. I was treated with the usual antibiotics and acid reducer. The symptoms subsided some but I noticed that I was not able to eat certain foods. Then I was scheduled for a hysterectomy about 2 months later everything went fine until a few days later I began to have severe stomach pain along with the worst diarreah ever. I went to the doctor and I now had C. Diff. I was told the antibiotics taken for the H. Pylori.
280418 tn?1306325910 MDs regularly prescribe antibiotics for acne, for ear aches, for dental work, for all manner of things, but when it comes to a horrible disease like Lyme, they suddenly get a case of the horrors? It's Lyme politics ... again. I'm sure your father is only concerned about your wellbeing, but it's the "There ain't no Lyme here!' crowd among the medical profession that is putting forth this hypocritical stance on antibiotics. Oh golly there I go again, ranting. Sorry!
Avatar m tn I am just being curious here but has any one in recorded history ever gotten HIV from "fingering" or a handjob. It just seems that a lot of us have been exposed to this level. Around the hand most people have little scrapes or loose skin generally due to the norms of life either as part of what we do at work or through normal everyday household chores and thsu the concern for most of us. Would anybody on this forum know or have heard of transmission via these exual activities.

Avatar n tn When she came down with strep throat and was treated with antibiotics, the symptoms greatly improved. When the strep returned the following month, and she was treated again with antibiotics, the symptoms disappeared for nearly two years. She has had many blood and urine tests for every kind of bacteria (including h. pylori) and parasite, but all came back negative. She has also had normal results from x-rays, endoscopy, and ultrasound.
Avatar f tn I have 2 kids, 6 and 8 months. Both have asthma. My 6 year old has allergic asthma and my 8 month old was diagnosed with enviromental asthma. I feel educated and all that I am just looking for a parent that is dealing with this too. Its hard and stressful. Baby has be hospitalized 3 times and I am distributing breathing med and nose spray daily. How do I deal with enviromental asthma with A baby? I've already done air purifiers etc...I'm just overwhelmed. Advise please!
Avatar m tn I get a sore throat (not tonsils but when you swallow) I now go straight on antibiotics and use Bricanyl inhaler although it doesnt seem to have much effect except to cause alot of mucus coughed up from the lungs. It causes me to have spasm coughing and if I cannot control this to 3 or 4 coughs my windpipe closes over making it hard to breath in or out. The last one about 2 years ago stopped me breathing in and out completely for 10 to 15 seconds and I thought I had bought it.
Avatar f tn A week ago, I got off a course of antibiotics (Augment) that I took for 14 days. It bothered me the entire time I took it. I gradually had bloating, distention of the stomach and tingling, numbness and a 'cold' sensation started later on. This hasn't gone away and has only improved about 30% since taking probiotics and eating a lot of fermented foods and coconut yogurt with live cultures. The Kevita probiotic drinks help the most.
Avatar n tn my daughter is 16. she has been on norocin antibiotics for two and a half weeks, starting four to five days approximately after the end of her last menstruation, because of a urinary system infection. a few days ago she thought her mensturation started. but she only had a few drops of blood and then nothing. I am strongly concerned about a pregnancy. when she was diagnosed and given norocin, she also had a blood pregnancy test which came negative.
Avatar m tn Since then I have had no symptoms of any STD, no unusual discharge from my penis and no lesions (I generally have a slight discharge on and off through the day right from puberty) I have had a history of prostate issues due to which I have a burning sensation while urinating or ejaculating. About a week ago, the burning sensation seemed to increase with burning sensation at the tip of my penis. I went to see the doctor who did a dip stick test on my urine.
4373539 tn?1354708752 I think that happens not in adults, but with small children whose teeth are still forming and perhaps with babies in utero -- however it's a question for your doc and your pharmacist.
Avatar f tn they gave me antibiotics. Today I went to my Primary Care for a check up. I told him about my nose issue. It has come and gone for a few months, and I told him that. He swabbed my nose to see if I had MRSA or I am a a MRSA carrier. I am FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW....I am a teacher! I feel like if I have MRSA OR if I am a carrier, I can't teach! We have a field trip scheduled for tomorrow and I can't miss it. I am a mess right now. If I am a carrier, what does that mean??
