Switch from Azithromycin to Doxycycline

Hi, I have severe asthma and pseudomonas infection for which I’ve been put back on Colomycin nebs following an infection that wouldn’t resolve, but did after I asked my GP if we could try a course of cipro (they didn’t try that first as sputum sample didn’t show pseudomonas). I’ve had to switch from

Stopping Azithromycin after 25 years

Anyone else been told to stop their alternate day dose of Azithromycin due to colonisation of Mycobacterium Abscessus in the lungs? I stopped taking it 14 months ago and have had a rough year with my chest. No hospitalisation required but every time I've taken my rescue antibiotic Ciprofloxacin, the

Bronchiectasis.. Should you stop talking Azithromycin if you have to start Ciprofloxacin?

Hi Bronchiectasis friends I Have colonized pseudomonas.. diagnosed last October .. feel ok but this week I’m not sure if I’m having a flare up . My only change is that I’m producing more mucus & I can feel it sometimes in the center of my chest. May have to start my ciprofloxacin rescue pack ..😖

Oxygen : to be or not to be? A long sad tale.

BACKGROUND I have Bronchiectasis and bronchiolitis obliterans. For 2yrs + my Fev1 was 30%. DOWNHILL Aug 2020 I was in hospital with an infective flare up. On O2 for 12 hrs. Strong antibiotics. A week on I insisted on a sputum test. 16 days in hospital, my blood test results showed a lessening of symptoms

Can cranberries treat cystitis?

Taking cranberries is helpful in the treatment of cystitis. However, in the acute stage of cystitis, antibiotics are needed for treatment. Usually you can drink some cranberries to prevent bladder inflammation. However, drugs are needed in the acute treatment period, and azithromycin and other drugs

My first post, how can I manage sleeplessness caused by asthma?

Hello, I'm 71 and have asthma, bronchiectasis, Marfan's syndrome and chronic pseudomonas infection. My immediate problem is that worsening breathlessness just before Christmas at night led to me having to sleep sat up on the sofa for a few nights. I can see from other posts that these are not uncommon

Does Azithromycin cause RLS

I was given a zpak 2weeks ago. I now have trembling in my legs and torso which is causing insomia. For the last 5 days I have only slept 2-3 hours a night. I don’t even know where to begin to get help. Any suggestions for a new sufferer?

What happens if men not treat chlamydia

Chlamydia is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in the U.S. This infection is easily spread because it often causes no symptoms and may be unknowingly passed to sexual partners. In fact, about 75% of infections in women and 50% in men are without symptoms. What happens if men don't

Sputum testing? Recurring chest infection

Hi. My daughter (12) is starting her third course of Azithromycin today. Her asthma has been bad since end of October, the consultant suspected a mycoplasma infection and two courses of Azithromycin seemed to finally have cleared it. She was better for a good week, then went downhill again. Started coughing

Incubation period of chlamydia and mycoplasma

Generally, the incubation period of chlamydia and mycoplasma is one to four weeks. Incubation period of the disease usually hints when symptoms occur. For instance, one to four weeks is the incubation period of chlamydia and mycoplasma infection, which is relatively longer; gonorrhoea is within a week

What are the worst drugs for Parkinson’s disease patients?

Patients may not be aware that some common drugs used for conditions such as headache or gastrointestinal dysmotility may also block dopamine, and concomitantly worsen Parkinson’s disease, or alternatively result in parkinsonism. These drugs include Prochlorperazine (Compazine), Promethazine (Phenergan
