Bactrium DS

[blindhearted]

My local Pulmo Dr put me on Bactrium DS since my sputum culture showed MRSA. Well, since the first dose, I've been having an issue. About an hour after I eat I get sick. One minute I am fine, then *bam* I feel really sick. When I get this sick feeling, I feel flushed, weak, lightheaded, HR seems to increase/beat harder and extreme nausea, also sometimes have anxiety. I thought my sugar was dropping, but when I check it, it's fine. I've tried taking Zofran and/or Phenergan for the nausea, but the only thing that really relieves it is to actually throw-up. I'm not sure what is going on. Last time I had something like this happen, it was with Levaquin, but it always happened after I took the medicine. Because of it, I'm not allowed to take Levaquin anymore. But this time it will happen if I just took my medicine or if I havent had my dose yet. The Bactium is the only thing to change, and it didnt start until I began taking it. So I'm guessing that is what is causing it. I'm not allergic to Bactrium to my knowledge. In the past 36 hours, I have eaten 7 times, I've kept food down for about 3 of them. What I eat doesnt seem to matter either, something bland, something greasy, large, small....all get the same reaction. I am down to 103-106 lbs (suppose to be 115-120) and I do not need to keep this up. I can't afford to lose anymore weight. Anyone have any suggestions or know what is going on?? Thanks in advance.

You might want to check back with your doctor. I agree with kchat17-- you might be allergic-- doesn't sound fun.

The same exact thing happens to me pretty much when I'm taking Zyvox. Except I start feeling sick during the meal, not afterwards. I wish mine was like that, actually. It sucks throwing up in the middle of every meal. Unfortunately the only thing that helps is Zofran and I am only able to get 10 of those a month. A different antibiotic isn't really an option anymore (at least not orally) because my MRSA is resistant to everything EXCEPT Zyvox. So I guess extreme nausea during meals is better than laying in bed with all the usual symptoms...sigh. I don't really have any thing to add to help you, I wish I did. I was just adding the fact it happens to me too. Are there any other antibiotics you can go to that work without making you so sick? Sometimes if I catch the infection before it gets really bad, an antibiotic called KETEK helps a lot. It's real medicinal name is telithromycin. It never causes nausea or anything for me.
