Reserch symptoms and conditions

I had back surgery in July and caught two infections from the hospital, Staph and pseudonymous. I had a picc-line put in and was put on Cipro oraly and Ancef. I got Steven Johnson syndrome from the Cipro and almost died. I looked like a burn victim and swelled from head to toe that was three weeks ago. They pulled me off the Ancef and Cipro. It took a week of me running 103 + temps and the dr. kept telling me its a virous until the rash showed up and my tongue swelled and private parts and throat started to swell shut before they decided to admit me. Then once all that was done and they figured it out they put me on impernem to kill both infections. They pulled my picc-last week and put me on Doxycycline. I have done my research and know that the two are related I asked my dr. what the chances were of a reaction again he told me less then 1%. Ha! I am seeing an infectious disease dr. by the way. Since I started the Doxycycline last Thursday I have developed hives I called the dr. and was told they are not worried about it because I am not running a 101 temp and I am not swelling, plus they don't even know if the Pseudonymous is cured. What do I do? If I go off the antibiotics I will die and if I stay on them I am probably going to die. My joints hurt all the time now and I am only 31. Do I look for a new dr.? Can someone please help me? This is the only website I have found so far where people have had the same reactions as me. These antibiotics are dangerous they need to be taken off the shelf. Thank you and good luck to everyone who is struggling with this.

MY 76 year old mother, on hbp meds for 30 years,METOPROLOL, for quite a few years now ,And she complains of severe pain in her shins, NIGHTMARES, for years now to her Dr. Lately she has been having fainting spells, and at times has short term memmory loss, The Dr did cut her metoprolol in half. dreams aren't as bad, She is going to have a D&C due to uterine polyop, all of this has sent me to the internet researching all the meds she is on, I feel bad I haven't done this research sooner, I just thought the doctors know???? Please we need to do our homework, research and take responsibility, for our health and those we Love.. I have been cooking and shopping for her past month, Lots of RAW fruits and vegetables,garlic and other healthy, herbs and oils, she has lost 10 lbs, bp has dropped 135/70 was 155/90 she is now down to 210 lbs, 5 ft, Im hoping the Dr. will take her off the metoprolol soon

I am 43 and have been taking eltroxin for a couple of years now and apart from feeling the cold more than anyone else and the odd fatigue I have felt fine. I recently hurt my back and asked for a bone density scan. The results were that I had the beginning of osteoporosis After a little research I found that Eltroxin can effect bone density, so now am looking for a natural substance to treat my hashimotos disease.

After prolonged use, my spouse seemed to loose all feelings and emotions. It was as if he didn't care about anything. Has anybody else had this happen?
