Update on vertigo, thrush???

[Guest guest]

Hello,

Today I finally got to see the only good doctor I know of here in Las

Vegas. I went over the past six weeks with her and she had some

ideas. But the best news is that she is doing a throat culture. I

know it won't cover everything, but it is a start.

I developed vertigo after an exam of my vocal cords. Then in 4 weeks

this turned into vertigo plus thrush in my throat. I get a

prescription for diflucan and the thrush has disappeared, but the

throat is still full of gunk, just not white gunk, and feels somewhat

sore. I was alsp put on clotrimozole troaches and a nystatin cream

for a red inflammed navel. This cleared up.

So today my doc thinks I probably have two things going on at once,

yeast and some other infection, maybe staph or strep. She started me

on clindymicin and may change that once the culture comes back.

Psychologically this has been difficult as I was doing so well on

Recuperation since last November. I HATE feeling this crappy again,

unable to move without head spinning and headache, extreme fatigue,

etc. The worst is not being able to focus mentally.

But let me quit whining. I would be interested in any ideas -

anything I am missing.

Thanks,

a Carnes

Thank goodness this doc recognizes an infection and is doing cultures. Sounds like she's including the normal bugs, which is good. Now the hope is that the lab does enough sensitivities, and she gives you enough abx. If she gives you the right one, I bet you'll be feeling better pretty rapidly. pennypjeanneus <pj7@...> wrote: Hello,Today I finally got to see the only good doctor I know of here in Las Vegas.
