That’s not great but hoping you’ll feel better soon. Hope you’re being well cared for by the doctors in Rhodes xx

Just keep pushing antibiotics down my neck. Had so many flare ups this year doctor was direct enough to tell me that a flare up is what will kill me

When you start getting extremely frequent flare ups you just know something bad is on the horizon.

Not sure of health care on Rhodes but am always quite suspicious when people have frequent, multiple flare ups very close together. Have they tested your sputum to ensure you are on right antibiotics? And have you taken a long enough course of them? The reason I am suspicious is that I wonder if the original infection hasn’t cleared properly so that after a couple of weeks better health, infection has the chance to re establish itself??

Just my thoughts of course. Wish you better soon.

I have issues with alot of different antibiotics and when I have them I always complete the prescription and get more if not clear , but being end stage I was warned of more frequent flare ups so just take it as it comes.

Oh dear. It hasn’t help that you’ve had a lot of stress to contend with. I hope you get better soon. You take care of yourself and come back when you’re feeling better.
