Biaxon symptoms and conditions

I've been taking Biaxon XL for the past week for strep throat. It has given me terrible nausea and diarrhea for most of that time. Called the doctor, but they claim there aren't a lot of antibiotics that treat strep and they won't give me anything in the penicilin family because I once had a rash. At this point I would risk the rash to not feel like crap.

I just want to sleep!!! I've been taking Biaxon for four days. There is a bad taste in my mouth but not too bad. Sometines my throat feels strange. It's as though my wind pipe wants to close up. This doesn't last long and I wonder if it's anxiety...I've never experienced this with any other med. I have an aweful ear infection and plan to suffer through these side effects unless they worsen. I just wish I could sleep...I don't know how I'll work tom.
