If they weren't working at all after 9 days, there really isn't much you can do besides change meds. I imagine the bugs were already resistant to them anyway, so that is why they weren't working. I've had my meds changed after a week, or two, MANY times. It usually worked in my favor too, and the new meds did the trick. I hope your new meds work for you and kick those bugs.
Try not to worry so much!! I know it's easy for me to say, but do your best to relax, it will help you get better too. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"></end quote></div>
I know I just need to RELAX!!! LOL.... I am such a worrier!
Actually, my cultures did say my current bugs are sensitive to merrum, so that's why it makes no sense. The only thing I could think is that the bugs that are causing problems didn't show up in my culture and perhaps those are the ones that aren't effected by merrum?
I am sort of feeling a little better.... not as much green stuff coming up, since starting the cefepime. However, I was awakened this morning with a productive cough (maybe a good sign??)
Thanks for the responses! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
