Resistant To Antibiotics. What To Do? Have UTI And Diarrhea
hi, my name is Mansour, I'm resistant to many antiboitics, but recently, I came into the hospital complaining of very bad
loose stool. All of my garments are ruined, ates
the doctor here (in-patient) , cite, that I have an ulcer on butt, that has tunneled into an pool and that the
pool has an opening going into the bone. He has been treating me with vancomycin and primaxin because I have a
UTI, they want me to take this stuff, every 8-hrs, back to back. I'm concerned
because, I've been taking antibiotics for nearly 5-years, and I'm very concerned.
it seems like they have some hidden agenda. Mansour Veracruz

HI
Thank for choosing HCM,, It is amazing that you are taking antibiotics since 5 years you, your self taking it or some Doctor prescribed it in both way it is not advisable at all, taking antibiotic without any proper indication for such longer period not only developed resistance but causing great great harm to internal (Physiological) system of body, diarrhoea is self limiting, unless indicative for certain drugs,, now stop taking antibiotic, if needed then go for culture sensitivity test it will show the growth of organism with their sensitivity and resistance against antibiotics, take care,, good day.
