Avatar f tn I went to my gyn I had a uti he gave me meds macrobid and said it will also help my throat .  But I don't see how plus I don't feel comfortable taking meds while I'm pregnant Is there anything I can do without meds ?for UTI and Sore Throat if not did anybody take MACROBID while pregnant ?
Avatar f tn I took macrobid as well. How long ago did u last take it and what are ur symptoms? Macrobid really messed me up.
Avatar f tn Hi.. has anyone else taken macrobid for uti?? Is it normal to feel horribly sick with it? How did you all deal with the nausea? My doc gave me reglan but it doesn't seem to be helping and I'm hardly half way with macrobid.. I've been non functional while taking it and it's getting worse every day. Any advise on dealing with it will be appreciated..
Avatar f tn I am 16 wks. pregnant and my OB prescribed Macrobid for UTI, i had urinalysis and small amount of blood was noted. I told my OB that my urologist said that im always will have blood in my urine beacuse of hx. of cyst in my kidney so I requested to have urine culture prior to taking Macrobid, my OB is insistant to start the med. since it is going to take awhile for culture results to come back. so im already in my 4rt day of the meds.
Avatar m tn t be around it if you have any lung diseases or lung damage. I had two surgeries last year from a collapsed lung, does this count? I would like to visit her. Thanks for any answers!
Avatar n tn Required extreem pain management post surgical and ended up with a collapsed lung. Found out I also now have a rt. frozen diaphram. Prior to this surgery I had an intrathecal pain pump implanted at the end of 2006 right below the rt. lung. The catheter for the pump was placed at the T8 level. It required a great deal to get it to fit in. Now with all that has happened I am not sure what specifically caused the frozen diaphram?
Avatar f tn I JUST FINISHED MACROBID 7 DAY TREATMENT. MY MENSTRUAL CAME 3 DAYS EARLY AND THERE IS BRIGHT RED BLOOD AND USUALLY MY MENSTRUAL BLOOD IS NOT THAT BRIGHT. I INITIIALLY WASNT DUE FOR MY MENSTRUAL UNTIL YESTERDAY I'VE BEEN BLEEDING SINCE THE 3RD AND IM STILL BLEEDING BUT NOT ALOT LIKE I WAS YESTERDAY AND THE DAYS BEFORE BUT THE BLEEDING HAS LIGHTENED. THE BLEEDING WILL COME OUT IN MY URINE I WANT TO KNOW WILL THE BLEEDING STOP?
Avatar n tn Thank you very much for this information. I have Macrobid dated 2008. Will it harm me if I try to see if it works? Thanks again.
Avatar f tn Was in the ER weekend before last. Diagnosed me with a UTI, and put me on Macrobid 100mg BID. Got a call yesterday, they said my culture reads that the bacteria in my urine is resistant to Macrobid. So apparently they didn't do a Culture and Sensitivity test when I was in the ER like they should have. I had to pay $50 for the Macrobid that I took, that didn't and wouldn't do diddly-squat for my "UTI". I think I was misdiagnosed and mistrated with the Macrobid.
Avatar f tn yes I have been to the doctor and told that they are UTI's...and my husband has good hygiene so I don't think that's the problem...perhaps I am just more prone to getting them! And I'm not familiar with a macrobid...what is that?
Avatar f tn I do know that the weakness and numbness in one side can be caused by the MS, but it did not occur until i took the macrobid. I was stopped from taking the macrobid and started on it 2 more times and each time the weakness returned. Is there anyway to fix this? It is getting rather annoying and saddens me cause it feels like i cant do anymore what i like to. If anyone has had the same thing happen, please let me know im not alone... How can the weakness and numbness be stopped.

497868 tn?1212223282 Assuming that you smoked less than 2 packs daily, you are unlikely to have sustained permanent lung damage and extremely unlikely to get smoke-induced lung cancer. Your risk of this will progressively diminish with time and will be approximately the same as that of your peers who have not smoked, 3 years or so after your quitting.
Avatar f tn I was proscribed it. I habe two different drs and im.being induced monday. And it DIRECTLY states dont use it 37 weeks or later or close to delivery. .. im scared and this pregnancy is so freaking hard on me. Im getting to the point of giving up.

Avatar n tn I have had this happen to me I go sailing and have been thrown several times in Storms, Ribs seem to always be what I damaged, they hurt a lot but theres nothing you can do, I have found some relief in getting those back braces and wearing it as a support, as it hurts when you sneeze , Breathe or Bend,the Docs cant do anything , they take time to heal, as he had Xrays they know it hasnt gone into a Lung,its just time and Painkillers I'm afraid.
Avatar f tn Uti or bladder infection. My doctor proscribed me macrobid. Terrified to take it, anyone else had to use this while pregnant, I'm only 8 weeks!
Avatar f tn The damaged areas are good breeding grounds for bacteria, which can perpetuate more infections and more lung damage. It becomes like a vicious cycle. It is important to get a proper diagnosis, so that he can get the right treatment. With good treatment his quality of life will improve.
Avatar f tn i also did not like etv from the begining for the lung thing and when i saw partial response and hbsag increase instead of decline i went combo with tdf, today i am tdf mono
Avatar f tn s an inflammatory response. And it gets better when the uti is healed and enough time passes for normalization. The antibiotics kill off bacteria causing the uti which then reduces inflammation. So, I'd say this is a real possibility. I know you posted a link which I opened and read. I guess they are studying it but it does appear to be pretty rare. If you look at that data, it's like 2 patients being looked at in one study and 20 out of 7,500 patients in another for .
Avatar f tn around the 5th day I noticed I had hightened anxiety in the middle of the day and night where I just started to panic and thinking about my future and just kind of feeling hopeless out of the blue. Then last night and today I have been struggling with the worst anxiety and depression at random moments, unlike anything I have ever had. Luckily I am finished with it at this point but is this normal to have these strange anxiety/panic moments while on an antibiotic?
Avatar f tn Her chemo oncologist claims that radiation has caused muscle damage and prescribes pain pills. These are increasingly ineffective and the dosage is being steadily increased. I've suffered from chronic bursitis for years and my daughter's symptoms mirror my symptoms with acute bursitis. When pain from bursitis gets too intense, I'm administered shots of cortisone which solves the problem for a few years before inflammation occurs again.
