Guest guest Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 Marta, I have never had Avelox or Zithromax, but I wrote it down. When I have a voice I want to really talk to him about all this liquid medications baloney. He almost prescribed Floxin and changed his mind, thinking that might be stronger than needed. There are so RNY patients here in MS, and so few DS patients, he is never sure what is best for me and leans towards RNY recommendations, which I always question. Me bad patient , I am always questioning why, sometimes he leans my ways and sometimes I lose and he wins. But I do what he recommends with all my allergies. I am prone to pneumonia if it gets in my chest so we have to catch this in the beginning before it can settle and take hold.
