It also says that the colony count of the bacteris is 1,00,000 cfu/ml. Hence, doctor prescribed some medicines like Uribid with nitrofurantoin in it, Prothiaden M, Montemac FX for allergy and Hifenac-P for fever and also Cital syrup for UTI.

Is this mixture of tablets fine, or any other suggestion or recommendations for treating this urinary tract infection of K.Oxytoca.
I have compensated cirrhosis and have recently developed a bladder infection. I am allergic to PCN and Cipro and have been given Nitrofurantoin for 7 days. I am very afraid to take it. Does anyone have any experiences with it or can recommend other meds to take?
Thank you for any suggestions!
So I had an allergic reaction to summers eve feminine wash. It's very painful...I figured this would happen I'm allergic to just about anything you put near downtown. Sorry for the tmi...but does any one know any thing that might alleviate the pain?
From your post it seems to an allergic reaction. It could be an allergic response to a food product or an environmental allergen like dust, smoke, pollen etc.
Only an allergy test will help in pin pointing the exact cause of the allergic reaction.
Regarding the numbness and muscle twitching, please get a blood sugar test done to rule out diabetes. Also Vitamin B6 and B12 deficiency can cause numbness in various parts of the body.
For approximately 9 wks now I have been having an allergic reaction to something. I get welts all over my body which are extremelty itchy. My face, lips, eyes and tongue swells to where you can't recognize me. I occasionally have severe joint pain. I have been to the doctors and an "allergist". I have had alot of test which basically came back negative (R.
Two days into it her left ear did the same thing, the base of her neck became irritated and her scalp became itchy as well. We took her to the doctor and he is treating it as an allergic reaction. It has come down a bit with benadryl but it's still here,very itchy and it has spread to her cheeks. One week and 3 days into she isn't much better and I'm wondering if it could be something else?
This is swelling of the deeper layers of the skin due to an allergic reaction. The reaction occurs more commonly on the face around the lips and near the eyes. Therapy lies in identifying the allergens and avoiding them and antihistamines. Its difficult to predict what the allergen was. So, maintain a diary and note down your symptoms. This will help to narrow down the search. Please consult your primary care physician for further evaluation.
This is the second time this has happened to me within the last month. I have been having an allergic reaction to something unknown. The first time I was at work and it started as a rash on my arms then turned into hives on my chest then the third day my lips were numb. I saw my gyno and she said just take benadryl and monitor. Well ive taken it pretty much everyday since and the rash went away but my eyes have been the problem now. The become so itchy and I cant stop rubbing them.
Allergic reactions just happen. One day your body may tolerate a certain medication or food just fine ... and then another day you have swelling, itching, hives, swelling and trouble breathing! Yes, it's that quick sometimes. Your reaction time must be quick as well. As caregiver said, you need to carry either a 'epi-pen' or whatever medication(s) you and your Dr agree would be best in case of an allergic episode! Best of luck - take care!
I would highly recommend you speak with your doctor, that's an unusual side effect. It could be an allergic reaction. I don't see anywhere that there is a reaction like that. Are you taking any other meds of any kind including OTC? Do you have allergies in general?
My dad gets swollen lips when he is in contact with an allergen. Sounds like it may be the same thing, but do check with your doctor. Hang in there!
How long would it take to have an allergic reaction to a topically applied cosmetic treatment? I have had a reaction to something and all I can think of is that I used some new products containing natural herbs and fruit enzymes etc, however this was almost 48 hours ago.
My symptoms are itching and bumpy, slightly reddened skin on my face.
It lasted about 3 weeks and subsided after using potent steroid cream and antihistamines. The biopsy showed that it was an allergic reaction to medication. I did not take any new meds, have been on my most recent med since March, and have not changed since. Why would there be a reaction to meds and then clear up if nothing was changed? The doctor had no answer.
