I have switched iv antibiotics a few times this summer. Each time I get better but I immediately get sick when I come off of them. There has to be an explanation since I have only been on iv antibiotics twice in 24 years and now I've been on them 4 times since June. I am on zyvox and ivs right...

Yea I do.. Never gotten a bronch though.. They claim the antibiotics I take are effective based on my cultures..

Have you been on iv antibiotics? Do you get a bad cough in the mornings? Do you check your blood sugars? I often have wondered if diabetes was the underlying cause of me not staying well after treatments but I check my blood sugars and they are normal.. So I honestly don't know what is going on...

Yea.. I'll keep that in mind. It certainly helps to know that others have gone through this.

Well this has never happened to me in the past. Antibiotics have always cleared me up for a while. When I finish my ivs I lift for an hour every day and do either treadmill or jump rope for 30 minutes. Nothing seems to keep the infection from racing back. So you think it just takes time sometimes?

Yea the hypertonic saline just gave me a tickly unproductive cough and nose runs so I quit that .. And I am on Zithromax .. Haven't noticed a difference .. But I'm fine with taking oral antibiotics it's just they don't work anymore.. Unless it's zyvox

I should probably mention that I am very active and have only needed iv antibiotics twice in my life before last June when this all started..

Took cayston.. Diddnt do a thing.. Tried inhaled vanc.. Coughed up a lot of blood.. Now I'm back on Tobi ..Tobi has never helped my cough.. And my oxygen levels are like 96 to 97

Has anyone else had a period of time where they keep getting sick after antibiotics? It's been about 5 months now and I've been on iv antibiotics 4 times and I keep getting sick again about a week and a half after antibiotic discontinuation. It seems like each time the antibiotics work a little...
