Avatar m tn m on duflucan until my coxy levels go down and I show negative for valley fever, unfortunately rest is not the way to treat valley fever, valley fever will never go away but the diflucan stops the valley fever from spreading and gives your immune system and opportunity to fight back.

Avatar n tn I had problems breathing for awhile. I had smoked for 35 years. I also had valley fever and T.B. I went through the year of treatment. So my lungs have been put to test I would say. I was hospitalized for two weeks. And have returned a couple of nights do to complications. Like high blood pressure, big time body cramps, and a high fever. I was sent home on oxygen. My question is. I would like to know if I'll be ever to run again with my three grandchildren? They are really all I care about.

Avatar f tn This time with muscle achiness, fever, headache and swollen lymph nodes and stiff neck. I was looking at the symptoms of valley fever and it looks close. Before I had the flare up, there was a sand storm here in our area which after exposure to that I also experienced flulike symptoms. Those symptoms were all gone because I treated myself with some natural remedies but the muscle ache (although minimal this time) still lingers.
Avatar f tn She recommended a gyn doctor that is good with diseases but he is no longer at the hospital she sent me too. I am constantly getting creams and diflucan for the yeast infections. I feel that my gyn is not meeting my need. I do not want to live on the creams and diflucan. I heard about a gyn on the radio that I would like to go to. I will make an appointment with her. I never took diflucan long term. I will get two diflucans at one time.
