Avatar m tn 2 weeks later i did a sputum test which showed I had klebsiella oxytoca infection as well as pseudonomas aeruginosa. They treated me with cetamadine iv for 7 days and 10 days of doxycycline (oral). The klebsiella was gone but pseudonomas remained. They then put in a pic line and gave me 3 daily doses of gentamyacin , and 10 days of zosyn . ( zosyn ran for 20 hrs per day and genta for 1hr) .
Avatar m tn Testing while on doxy can give you false negatives, and even testing 5 days after stopping might, too. Did a doctor prescribe the doxy, and what for? Unprotected oral can give you something called NGU, which is an infection in the urethra called non-gonococcal urethritis. It's basically any infection not caused by gonorrhea. It can be caused by normal mouth bacteria entering the urethra, strep, respiratory viruses, etc.
Avatar f tn Can someone tell me what STDs can be treated with Doxycycline? Can you list all of them please? Thank you.
Avatar f tn This sounds like an upper respiratory infection for which kitty needs to see a vet as soon as possible, like now if there is an emergency clinic open. Human meds aren't safe to try and use. Left untreated, he may well lose his eyes. Most vets will work out a payment plan. Over the counter pain meds like Tylenol or aspirin, cats can not process properly and they will damage their liver. I'm not able to offer anything other than that, except good luck.
1100598 tn?1413127426 I have asthma. In October, I developed an upper respiratory infection that caused swollen lymph nodes in my neck and an ear infection/sore throat, and later on a cough. The cough has hung on since then. I have had two chest x-rays, which have come back negative. My doctor put me on a course of prednisone, which did nothing. The cough brings up a foaming white phlegm, and sometimes causes heart palpitations.
Avatar m tn 1. The dosage is determined by the treating physician. 2.
Avatar m tn Welcome to the forum. Thanks for your confidence in our services. The bottom line: almost certainly you have a garden variety cold virus, allergy, etc, and not gonorrhea or any other STD. To your specific questions: 1) This may be more information than you need, but: As you already know, pharyngeal (throat) gonorrhea generally doesn't cause symptoms at all.

Avatar m tn 1 accorfing to my symptem, is that probably I got ( HSV1 2 or HPV warts, gonorrhea, chlamydia )orally? 2 If i was infected with any genital std, does it hurt my throat and respiratory tract area like the symptom i said? 3 If i get any std like (gonorrhea, chlamydia, hsv2) orally, will I have it in genital area too? does the symptom also appear on genital area? 4 I am having doxycycline, will the affect the result if I go for std test now? If yes, when is the good time for me to get std test?
Avatar f tn Hello, I had a little of Savannah kittens and when they were a few days old I noticed pus coming out of their eyes. I took them to the vet and got Pentamycetin eye drops to help whatever it is. I noticed the father (in a separate room) also starting to have teary eyes. I then took him to the vet and got blood work done. Nothing showed up. Then I had another vet recommend an eye swab for the kittens. It came back positive for D355 Mycoplasma. I then checked my other cats and they have it too.
Avatar m tn , I have had unprotected sex with a girlfriend and after three weeks i experienced a cloudy discharge from my penis and also a tingling sensation which I suspect as a chlamydial infection or NGU. I took 1g of zithromax and also took 5days of doxycycline 100mg. bid. After the medication my symptoms disappeared. After a few days however my testicles ached after i drank a large amount of liqour. I took another zithromax dosage and this time 1g on the first day and 500mg for another two days.
Avatar n tn I have been on doxycycline an antibiotic for about 5 days and i seem to be feeling very anxious and panic like. Does anyone know if this can cause these symptoms. I am also on 25mg of zoloft. Thanks for any help you can give me.
Avatar n tn Infections usually start out as upper respiratory infections, such as from a cold and then travel down into your lungs (lower respiratory infection). Other times it's from getting the flu and a secondary infection sets in, such as pneumonia or acute bronchitis. Other times you could get acute bronchitis from being exposed to a lot of irritants in the air (such as wood dust, heavy pollution etc).
Avatar n tn What is the dosage of Doxycycline and Azitrox in reactive arthritis caused by chlamydia? Is it the same with the dosage in uncomplicated Chlamydia infection ? Sorry for my bad english..Greetings and waiting for your reply ...
Avatar n tn Hello there, First of all how do you know your kitty has an upper respiratory infection? If you suspect an upper respiratory infection, please take your fur baby to a vet. If this amoxicillin or ciproflaxin is human medication, do not give this to your cat as this is made for human consumption not for cats. Take your cat to a vet to be properly diagnosed and treated. Under no circumstances should you ever use human prescription meds on a cat.
Avatar n tn I have fininshed my 21 days of doxycycline and have tried 5 different medications to make my headache go away and I still have my headache and sleepyness... When will my headache go away?
Avatar f tn My 13-year-old daughter has just been placed on Doxycycline by a Dermatologist. She is displaying puffy eyes and tightness in her chest or possibly throat, she cannot localize it exactly. She has known allergies to Amoxicillin and Sulfa, can these be related.
Avatar n tn Probably you had infection with adenovirus, one of the many common respiratory viruses. Did the sex worker have a cold, as far as you know? Adenovirus is particularly prone to cause conjunctivitis and some strains cause urethritis. It is easily transmitted to the urethra by oral sex and to the upper respiratory tract (including eyes) by kissing or even less personal contact. If adenovirus was the cause, it would have cleared up just as rapidly had you not taken the doxycycline.
Avatar m tn I have been using doxycycline, I have had trouble urinating still I had oral sex about 3 months ago. First my penis was going numb and then it went away.
Avatar m tn The second time was last Sunday. I was taking Azithromycin for my upper respiratory tract infection at that time( from last Thursday, 500mg per day). The Azithromycin was finished this Tuesday. But I felt some tingling in my urethritis, kind of hot in it sometimes since the morning of Friday. The symptom get more obvious later on till now. Some times, I feel kind of pain in the urethritis, totally durable and not heavy.
Avatar n tn Is this infection sexually transmitted exclusively? Could an infection have happened even if I am clean? I have read women are more prone to these types of infections due to a shorter urinary tract and it's proximity to the anus and our does include anal sex, although we have swapped between having vaginal and then anal sex, we have never done that the other way round. Could I have helped cause the infection without actually carrying it myself?
Avatar m tn 13 days after the experience I had little upper respiratory infection, which i get often.. I went to the doctor and he gave me 10 days of doxycycline 2 times a day. please help me to figure out what is going on.. could this be seconary syphilis..?
Avatar m tn I was prescribed to take 100mg of Doxycycline twice daily for 14 days. Now after completing the full course of antibiotics the symptoms are still present. As a result, I re-attended the health clinic for a test-of-cure and I was informed that a PCR urine test could not be taken until 5 weeks had passed due to traces of the dead bacteria effecting the result. However, a further culture swab test was taken and the doctor stated that there was no mucus cells present in this.
