Antibiotics are killing me!
I am nauseous, no appetite, headache, and I am exhausted. I feel like I am back in my 1st Trimester again!!

Re: Antibiotics are killing me!
what is it you are taking? you can call your dr and ask for something different. are you taking the medicine immediately after you eat?

I am taking Bactrim - a heavy duty one for a stubborn UTI that won't go away
And yes, I am taking it with food, but it upsets my stomach all day

Re: Antibiotics are killing me!
When I worked in the pharmacy, the pharmacists would always suggest people take heavy meds w/ MILK rather than 'food' .........
eating a piece of fruit isn't going to coat your stomach like a glass of milk will .......I mean, if you're eating Mac&cheese you should be ok
Try the milk, hope you feel better !!!

ITA with this. Throughout my whole 1st and 2nd trimesters, that was the only way I could take my Synthroid and Zofran in the morning. I would make DH go downstairs to get me a cold glass of milk.
He finally wised up and got me one of those mini-fridges for my bedside table so that he could sleep in the mornings
