Reason For Having Ear Discomfort Even After Taking Medication?

Hello I am currently on my second round of ciprodex for an ear infection. I finished a round of oral antibiotics as well. Amoxcillian. I still have ear discomfort with static sounds in ear. Also fatigue and periods of intense sweating. I also take cortef and fludrocortisone for primary Addisons Disease. Any suggestions?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of taking cortef and fludrocortisone for primary Addison's disease.
This disease per se reduces the body's healing power and thus the need for the antibiotics and supportive medicines is there.
Secondly it looks you have taken opnly the antibiotics.
you have to take additional anti-inflammatory and antihistamine along with nasal decongestant and supportive treatment.
It is possible that you need adjustment of the medicines for Addison's to get the proper boost in healing.
