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..
Well last week I got another bladder infection, and had a prescription for macrobid so I completed the course, and subsequently came down with a yeast infection. Treated that, and now I have my monthly outbreak, except I woke up with the bladder issues yesterday, I'm afraid of taking antibiotics, and I don't have insurance. My question is can HSV2 cause bladder, UTI issues? Is it just coincidence it's around the same time as my outbreak?
9wks post exposure experienced a yeast infection (white cottage like discharge+itching)tested pos for candida..Took terconazal cream cleared up.4days later am experiencind suttle inching now & then.Bv neg,Trich.Neg.I have hx of hpv but clear for 3yrs. How do we differientate between std,a real uti,a real yeast infect.?
A few nights ago my symptoms took a turn for the worst and I ended up in urgent care where I was finally diagnosed with a uti, bv, and a yeast infection. I have had all of these before numrous times and do everything under the sun to avoid getting them. In so glad to hear that I'm not alone. If you've had something that works for you please reply.
sounds like you have an infection either uti or yeast totally normal in pregnancy you could even have both at the same time witch would cause it to feel unbearable to walk or get up I've experienced this my second time around go to your doctors as soon as possible and ask the to check you for a uti so that they can give you macrobid so it'll go away then go to a local drug store and buy mionistat 7 day and a yeast infection test good luck start drinking cranberry juice hope you feel bet
That means I could have had the UTI for at least a few days before it got treated.) I also a yeast infection and took generic diflucan for this. I took Macrobid for the UTI and after I finished the prescription (four days after I finished it, about 3 weeks after my trip) I developed a rash/hives on my back, chest, face (there were a few big hives on/around my eyes making it hard to see), hands, and crotch.
You are taking antibiotics - and macrobid is a strong one - and have been for several days, so even though you are on diflucan, it's going to be tough to balance out the good and bad stuff in the vagina that keeps it all healthy.
When they are testing you for yeast, are they also testing you for bacterial vaginitis? The white discharge sounds like yeast, but you should also rule out BV.
This could be herpes, but without testing, it's hard to know.
But then two days after finishing the antibiotics, the symptoms came back and I had abdominal pain and kidney pain. I went back to the walk in clinic and was put on Macrobid for five days. After five days however, none of my symptoms seemed to be gone. I went to immediate care and they gave me another five days of Macrobid. I finally started feeling better by the 7th day on Macrobid.
I took about two weeks to get rid of the UTI, and then I felt fine for about another two weeks.
I went to the emergency room and the doctor checked my vagina and took a swab and said it looks like a yeast infection but It also looks like genital warts. I was shocked! I have had all my hpv shots and i dont know how i would get them my boyfriend of two years doesnt have them. Before i get my period i will sometimes get tiny papercut like cuts on the inside of my vagina lips. My vagina will also get really dry and my wax lady has told me twice that my vaginal skin is really thin.
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.
So, right now I am being treated with Macrobid for a bladder infection, Valtrex for possible HSV, and a cream yeast infection treatment. I was given a hospital-grade topical ointment containing lidocain for the burn. The doctor said that regardless of what the problem is, it should be gone in a few days. I am very unhappy with this conclusion, as I want to know for sure if I have HSV or not, obviously.
About halfway through my initial treatment of Macrobid, I felt a burning/itching that seemed consistent with a yeast infection, which I'd gotten before because of antibiotic use. I treated with Monostat 1 and symptoms seemed to disappear. Now, at the end of my Cipro treatment, I am feeling these symptoms again.
I have not noticed any unusual discharge on my underwear, nor any unusual odor.
Now the fun part: I had very brief unprotected sex 32 days before my UTI symptoms began.
I went to the doc today because I knew I had a uti but this is my first yeast infection ever. They gave me Fluconazole for the yeast infection and 250mg ampicillin that I have to take two at a time 3 times a day. My question is does anyone have experience with either of these meds and do they work quickly? I'm super miserable.
She said my nodes were only a bit swollen because I did not finish my macrobid, and my bladder was slightly inflammed, and any infection will cause a lymph reaction. I had a UTI test and I had keytones and white blood cells in my urine. I had PND and I am a smoker....smoking more frequently while freaking out, and that was the sore throat. No sign of herpes in my mouth. She said my vagina looked completly normal.
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?
Hello Doctors:
Here is the background information:
I have suffered from recurrent uti's for about two years. I am female, 30 years old. Primary symptom will be a burning when I urinate and back pain. I have been tested many times at the doctor, I think at least 5 times for trichomonias- mostly with the doctor looking under the microscope and once about 3 weeks ago with a DNA test. Also have been tested for gonherrea and chlymadia many times both with the urine test and pelvic swab.
I went back again with same symptoms and they again saw the bacteria and white blood cells and gave me cephlex. Took all the pills and 9 days later i went back. They said because i had three in a short period that I needed to go to a Urologist. The uti test came negative. I got tested for ghonnorea and chlamydia and every thing came negative. I asked could it be trich?She said no. But i had trich in the past with these same symptoms.
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.
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?
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.
