Guest guest Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hello all....I am still battling themiserable bronchitis and now on anti-biotic # 3. I Had Levaquin in the hospital and Zithromyicin there and at home....after 2 weeks..a bit better but not back to the " normal"...still coughing rather deeply and still sort of "gunky'...now I'm on Augmentin for 10 more glorious days!!! My ribs still hurt but the heating pad is working and I have some energy !! I'm still using the Duo-neb in the nebulizer and it is helping too! Spring is here and I'm not planning on missing it! I do have one question...have any of you lost your sense of taste and/or smell while on antibiotics? This has been going on since I was admitted and started on the high Levaquin and continues still. It's really weird...just hot,cold, smooth, crunchy. No taste...appetite however is really heightened ..I'm still on 30 Prednisone! I have to stay on that dose until I'm really "back". Then they will taper me back to my normal 10mg. I'm trying not to eat...the puffy-faced me is back and I don't especially like that ! I'll try to get to chat tonight if my voice holds out. I may just sign in say "hello" and then just ease drop! -- Z fibriotic NSIP/05 Z 65, fibriotic NSIP/05/PA And “mild” PH/10/07 and Reynaud’s too!! No, NSIP was not self-inflicted…I never smoked!
