Azithro

[Guest [Be...]]

I was on azithromyacin before with no side effects. But this time I do. Sent me into anxiety attacks and slight depression again. (Some muscle tightness)

 

Most of my side effects show up almost 2 weeks after. I know some say they know immediately and that’s the case for me with other things but with meds my side effects show up about 10-14 days after my last dose.

 

Anyone else have a certain time frame when they will know if something has revved you up?

I had the same experience as far as no trouble the first time but the second time I had problems. Az. stays in your body a long time after the last pill. That's why you generally only take a small number. I believe it's 15 or 16 days after the last pill that is stays in your tissues. You could Google check but I think that's right. I'm still dealing with some of it a month out from my last pill but the racing heart has subsided which is a great relief. I still have some muscle tightness and sinus drainage which hasn't really let up since I took it. As to your question of time frame, usually I will react to things fairly quickly and I did this time as well, I started reacting to the pills the 2nd day I took them. Zippy

I have usually reacted to anything very quickly, like within the same day.  As for antibiotics, I have had both ends, some terrible reactions, and some where I actually felt great while taking it.  With the knowledge we have now, it's impossible to predict how most people will react to antibiotics.  I just go by my own history when getting prescribed them.

 

One thing that has happened to me, and I don't know if this is true for others, is that the more often I get any one prescription, the more likely I am to have a reaction.  And then, each time after, the reaction is worse.  This has happened to me both with antifungals and antibiotics.  So I had taken minocycline and been fine with it, and yet, after taking it for a while, I ended up with a rash on my leg, which the doctor said was an allergy.  Then, a similar thing happened to me with macrobid.  More recently, I had what I thought was a sinus infection, and I asked for doxycycline, cause I had been fine with that, but the doctor gave me penicillin and I hadn't had penicillin in many years, and I actually felt great and amazing on the penicillin. 

 

Maybe something similar happened to you with the azithro.  I honestly don't know why I would be fine one time and after repeated use, worse.

Within 1-2 days I notice if something goes sideways. I was fine with an antiviral and macrobid in the first 3 months post jump. But this past month an antihistamine brought on a wave. Ugh. theres no way to predict and honestly everyone is so unique.

 

If I have to take a med in the future I'm going to ask for a pediatric dose and test it first.

I’m willing to bet it’s because of it being in my system for so long then. I think I have small reactions in the beginning of a med that I don’t notice bc I still deal with daily recovery, but it might just be when it all starts to leave my system that I start to feel more crappy.

This is something I will start paying attention to. Now that you mention it, I may have had similar issues in the past that I didn’t piece together!!

I’ve done fairly well with antivirals. My Med allergy list before benzos was off the charts so it’s so hard finding a med that I can take,  especially now. I’ve had several doctors recommended a antihistamine but I never take it because I’m afraid to.  Unfortunately last year I did not realize I was in WD and took so many things that it probably set me back so much. I get so afraid to take anything

But things like essential oils, cleaners, and foods I know within a day. It’s definitely a unique thing.
