ketek telithromycin patients

For the last two and a half years I have been on Ketek ( twice a day ) , ceftin ( twice a day), diflucan( once a day), plaquenil(twice a day) and pantoloc. I also take ton of acidophilus. I wennt off all of them the first of July this summer. I am quite a bit better but still suffer from extreme fatigue,and muscle twitching. I am wondering if you think I should try some other antibiotics?

The Incivek prescribing informations lists clarithromycin, erythromycin and telithromycin as antibacterials that can cause drug interaction. "Concentrations of both telaprevir and the antibacterial may be increased during co-administration. Caution is warranted and clinical monitoring is recommended when co-administered with telaprevir. QT interval prolongation and Torsade de Pointes have been reported with clarithromycin and erythromycin.

Saw my LLMD in San Francisco on Friday and he said that my Erlichoisis is cleared but wants me to stay on my meds (Ketek & Cipro) for another 30 days. My testing for lyme is still coming up positive and there were more positive bands and stronger ones than my last test three months ago. He said that the meds I'm currently are on do not treat lyme. After this course of meds, I am switching to Amox & Biaxin to begin treating the lyme. My CD57 shot up from like 20 to 87 though!

Hi, I am on my second day of a 5 day course of Ketek 400mg (Taking 800mg) . Tomorrow will be my third day. I had an upper respiratory infection but feel MUCH better. I want to go back to Gym tomorrow (Crossfit) i will only take my anti biotic after the session. Is this ok?

Is it just perhaps because older patients do not participate in forums such as this OR should doctors re evaluate their criteria for "age onset" of Ovarian Cancer ?? Maybe they should take more seriously those who come in with symptoms suggestive of Ovarian Cancer regardless of the age.. Which we've said all along but........ Just a ponder ....

This refers to a Sentinel node biopsy I had 6 years ago. The surgeon suggested it and I blindly trusted him to have it done. First, no family was allowed in with me. (If they had, they would have realized the trauma that I was going through). With the first injection, I bolted upright, fully screaming. It was the WORST pain I have ever been through. He had his assistants push me back down on the table and kept going with me screaming nonstop. I was so frightened. I was in a daze.

Have any of you chronic pain sufferers noticed how many of our fellow patients who surround us in the waiting room seem to laugh and talk and never dwell on why they are really at the Pain Clinic in the first place. This annoys the hell out of me. These very same people will mope and drag theirselves into the office, check in at the sign up desk, and once that is done start socializing.

I was wondering if anyone else here was considered "high risk" for treatment (the "typical" treatment w/ pegasys (interfuron) and copegasys (ribaviron) and what their experience has been with both access to Doctors willing to try the therapy with them being "high risk" patients, and the therapy itself.

I am wondering if anyone has ideas what we can do as chronic pain patients do to change our laws. Do we get a class action attorney? Do we get petition send to Congress? I know with as many people who are legitimate pain we can do something if we join together. Anyone have ideas?

So today I'm going to an orientation at a local university. Their medical school has an ongoing programme for real patients come and 'teach'/answer questions/give observations to current medical students. This was piloted with Crohn's patients, expanded to arthritis patients, and this year those of us with MS come on board. I just wanted to give a little hope to people who have had poor experiences with medical health professionals.

m quite knowlegable about transmission from blood borne diseases However I, no too long ago, handled a patients (hiv and hep status unknown)blood samples after a phlebotomy done with a canula (wearing latex gloves). Got some blood on the gloves (as expected) and disposed of it, washing my hand with soap and water right afterwards I remembered then that I had a two or three tiny puncture wound from the previous day (from unrelated injury- doing some home chores).

I was a cna years ago... I remember reading about how elderly patients should not be lay on their left side for too long because it hinders blood flow. I want to find the written material on this before I share it aloud to a class. I feel it will be in a cna book for elderly care- thank you.
