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) .
One thing that I have noticed on all of the charts is that runny noses, stuffed noses, etc. are more indicative of a cold. There are upper respiratory infections and lower respiratory infections. Colds are upper and Corona virus is lower. The hallmarks of the corona virus are dry cough, fever and shortness of breath. I do read a lot that people also may start with a sore throat. But sneezing and a lot of nose activity is more of a cold symptom.
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).
Hi, I battle lot's of infections, mainly sinus/upper respiratory, almost monthly, my wbc is not high but always elevated. Was sent to hematology, but clinic only deals with blood cancers, which I do not have. Antibiotics work, Amoxicillin, Bactrim, etc.... but infections always returns.
What physician or specialty clinic, deals with chronic infections ? So, I can discuss with my primary doctor for referral, thanks.
Well, goodness, doxy is taken for all kinds of reasons - acne, bronchitis and other upper respiratory infections, eye infections, gum disease, even malaria. It's a broad spectrum antibiotic, which means it's used for many, many things.
She's a CSW. You aren't entitled to her medical history. This is not a relationship where you share personal details.
Oral IS a risk for gonorrhea, chlamydia and syphilis.
2) I feel confident in your diagnosis that I have a virus of some sort. The only thing holding me back in that regard is I read that most viral upper respiratory infections include general cold symptoms- nasal congestion, cough, etc. I do not have any of these. My primary symptoms are a sore throat, general malaise, and an on/off headache. Is this still indicative to you of a viral infection?
I have a 7 mo old shelter cat who has been examined no less than four times now, by two different vets, for a cloudy area in his eye that has presented recurring issues. He was examined under anesthesia and the pronouncement was congenital corneal adhesion. The problem is that the adhesion seems to want to chronically ulcerate, sometimes seemingly painful with clear tears & a thick mucus, on other occasions with a dark brown discharge.
Well, I too get upper respiratory infections alot.I take Z pac each time and sometimes I have to take them right after each other. (waiting 5 days in-between of course) My doc finally prescribed a stronger med.
For me I know its due to have asthma~ I know when Im stressed or over loaded it weakens my Immune system and makes me more vulnerable to getting the upper respiratory infection. I still haven't had anyone tell me more than what I have learned from getting it every year.
I think it's time to see a doctor. Never ignore chest pain and now pain in your back and shoulders. Please get in and see someone today.
I can not afford any vet at all right now, but I need to do something. If Doxycycline Monohydrate is not okay, is grape flavor liquid tylenol for infants?
Thank you very much in advance!

One other possibility is that if your regular partner has given you oral sex, and has been sick, you can get that bacteria (or virus) in your urethra. You can get strep, adenovirus (usually causes bronchitis and other upper respiratory infections), etc., from oral sex. That's why testing your urine for everything is important.
You may need a urologist.
Let us know how you're doing.
My seven-and-a-half year old son has always had a high number of upper respiratory infections since toddler. Asthmatic symptoms include cough and sometimes wheezing when coming down with viral infection, and when exercising in cold weather. Infections resolve on own, but I'm concerned about high susceptibility to viral infection. Since school began in September, he has been ill with URI seven times, as well as with H1N1. Pediatrician did CBC and seems unconcerned, should I be?
t tell without seeing your dogs but thinks they could have upper respiratory - viral and/or bacterial - infections. Vaccinations do not necessarily mean your dogs or anyone's cats or dogs - will not get distemper or bordatella (kennel cough) but it does mean it is easier to treat and less likely to result in their deaths. This was new to me too. It doesn't mean that you should not continue with vaccinations.
I realize how worry you are about your constant upper respiratory infections. Surely there is a need to have a complete evaluation done by a physician and also lab work. It also depend that where you work if you work in a closed place, depending on how your immune system is at the moment you can easily have been re infected with viruses or bacteria that may have caused your upper respiratory infections.
Doc put me off work for a week and gave me a list of over the counter meds to take that only included Tylenol, Sudafed, and Chlortrimeton but I don't feel any better and my symptoms seem to be exactly the same daily. I'm going to my urgent care today for a follow-up but wanted to hear your experiences with colds, flus, or general infections in pregnancy.
