Can Amoxicillin Be Taken For Yeast Infection?

I was prescribed amoxicillin for what we thought was an UTI, but it turns out to be a yeast infection in the urine. I have now been prescribed to use fluconazole for 7 days, should I continue to take the amoxicillin? In the past I suffered numerous UTI’s and was treated with a lot of antibiotics which caused permanent damage to my left ear. I live daily with dizziness and nausea from the permanent damage. So, you see that I just don’t want to take the amoxicillin but do I need another drug in my system??? Please Help!
