i’m sure it’s a kidney infection due to the way my lower back hurts and cramps really bad. But it could possibly just be a bladder infection. However, do i NEED to go to the doctor for antibiotics to make it go away? Or will it just eventually blow over?
it’s really annoying since i have too pee during the night where i never have before and it’s kinda painful.

I got one of the foreskin, anti-fungal creme should be good to treat it, but what happens if any creme gets under the foreskin?
(I’ll head to the doctor for antibiotics probably, maybe safer)

Can systemic fungal infection cause worsening sinus tachycardia/arryhtmia?

Which white cells are raised when someone has systemic fungal infection?

Are ANY levels out because of it?

Can a healthy person develop invasive fungal infection within a couple of months or so?

If all they have done is take antibiotics for an infection?

My GP will not test me for fungal infection, she refuses to believe that it is systemic - saying "It’s highly unlikely!" I have asked for tests and because I already had lots of bloods done, she believes I have some kind of mental illness about my health. However, I have a lot of symptoms which say otherwise.
No - I am not obsessed by this, just trying to find answers.

I have been referred to a psychiatrist by my GP - how nice of her (*sarcastic)

Had tooth infection - took antibiotics
Had womb infection straight after - took antibiotics. Started itching all over, developed coated painful tongue, itching in throat. Used plain yoghurt to cure it. Then developed vag thrush and thrush around my bum. Used cream to clear it. Lost my appetite because when I ate I got sores in my mouth, painful ones, tongue coated again.
Then started with racing heart rate that would take hours to calm down. As the weeks went on my resting rate was about 90 odd and when I stood up it was 120 odd. Went to hospital 3 times. Had bloods taken - all normal. Tachy has been ongoing, not intermittent. I also get petechaie on my skin, and I am having circulation probs, and my fingernails have gone bluish. I do have fungal infection on my feet. I’m on beta blockers at the moment.
So, does that mean it would be quicker than a few months?

And the likelihood of it becoming systemic in a normally healthy person is low?

Does it ALWAYS present fever?
Thank you Harmony for your answer.

About a month ago my ear drum ruptured and was very infected, so the doctor prescribed antibiotics. The antibiotics didn’t work, and the doctor I just recently went to said they also caused a fungal infection. He prescribed antibiotics (drops and a pill) and antifungal medicine (generic lamisil drops and a pill). The lamisil drops are not meant for the ear, and he said that they would hurt because my eardrum is still perforated. But they make my throat burn and turn it bright red. I’d call the doctor and ask, but I don’t think he’s open on Sunday. He said if I started to feel better I could stop taking the antibiotics, but I could not stop taking the antifungal medicine. Is something wrong here?

I just finished Flagyl 500 mg 2 a day for 7 days on saturday for a bacterial vaginosis infection. I feel better, but am still having a little bit of discharge. Do you think it’s still there? I’m going back in tomorrow for another look at the dr. If i still have it why didn’t the antibiotics get rid of it? What will they give me next ? The flagyl made me feel horrible

My daughter shes taking augmentin antibiotics for 4 days now. It seems like she has a yeast infection because she’s having some discharge and icthing.Is that possible while your on antibiotics for couple of days only?

I’ve had three colds in the past 5-6 months or so, and each time I ended up getting an ear infection around the 4th or 5th day of my infection. Right now, my ear is blocking again and I fear I have yet another ear infection! What could cause this, and should I take antibiotics again?

How does treatment for a bacterial infection differ from treatment for a virus?

A. You can treat bacterial infections, not viruses, with antibiotics.

B. You can treat viruses, not bacterial infections, with antibiotics.

C. You can treat viruses with antifungal medications.

D. There is no difference. You can treat both types of illnesses with antibiotics.

I have a holland lop who is 4 years old. Her apetite has always been great, but she has had an excessive urination problem for 2 months now and she has had no fur around her butt, hind legs, and tail. So, I took her to see a vet who prescribed me an antibiotic called "sulfadimet 50mg"for 10 days. I gave it to her and I thought she was getting better, so I stupidly stopped it after the 4th day, and sure enough, the symptoms came back again. So, the vet prescribed me a different kind of antibiotic called "enrofox 27.2mg" because he had mentioned that she was already immune to the other antibiotic. I have her this one, but nothing changed. Her symptoms were still the same. She took a urine test and a blood test, both of which were very positive results. So, the vet assumed she had some fungus growing on her skin and prescribed me a medicine called "ketoconazole 200 mg" and an ointment for her skin called "conofite". I was starting to get worried and went to a vet that my friend had recommended me to, and they mentioned to me that we have to get to the "core" of the problem. We took xrays and found out that she had a spinal problem that was causing her to lose muscle, and had ulcers on her hind legs. The vet mentioned that because of this, she could be urinating on herself causing her skin to worsen. (I usually only use a shee-shee sheet in her cage. My rabbit used to use the potty bin, but ever since this problem she won’t use the potty in there anymore.) The vet figured that the skin problem arises from her sitting on the sheet (the sheet gets so soaked up with urine). So, the vet told me to continue with the antibiotics that the other vet recommended - enrofax. She also prescribed me an anti-inflammatory for her bones which will help her build muscle - luckily, she didn’t have arthiritis.
I am getting very scared and am wondering if I should stick to the vet that I changed to.
It’s been 4 days since I started the antibiotic - enrofox, but I haven’t seen much change. Should I be patient and wait until the effects start kicking in? Or, will it ever kick in? Does it take this long for an antibiotic to work?
I also recently got a dog about 5 months ago and am not sure if this affected the way my rabbit reacted. The vet recommended that I put soft cushioing in her cage for now so that the ulcers on her soles won’t hurt as much. It’s exactly what I did. I’m just very worried and can’t really focus on my work. Does anybody who may have experienced something like this have any advice? I would certainly appreciate it.

I have been experiencing a rash over the past 2 weeks. Now, it started off with just a small bump, that got bigger and then turned into a cigar-burn look. Now i’m covered in them, on my legs, face, arms, stomache. I went to the ER last week and they diagnosed me with pityrasis rosea. Then I got into the doctors today…and they did some testing and it’s a fungal infection. They perscribed me ketoconazole cream (along with some antibiotics) which is controlling my itching urges wonderfully, however the rash is now becoming scabby, is this good or bad? Will I have marks/scars left when this rash is gone?
Thanks for your anwsers, but only the one patch was large, the rest of them are small…but have the same features…do i still have a chance that they won’t scar?
