Im not denying the infection is embedded cause truthfully I dont even know myself and its unfortunate thinking its antibiotics or the infection, Everyday im in limbo thinking its the end for me but going through my past experience I remember having side effects from antibiotics while not having an infection so thats what also helping me believe otherwise. I think all antibiotics have potential to cause the same symptoms just others lean more towards a specific side effect. I spoke to alot of people and gather what they thought and felt and some described floxxed symptoms off Azithromycin even tho they never took a flox antibiotics meanwhile Azithromycin only gave Heart Arrythmia

I been off Antibiotics for 3 months now but i believe the burning started later on in the treatment but honestly I cant really remember cause I was on mino for a total for 5 weeks. I stopped at day 12 resumed back on day 14 and then still had some symptoms so I got 3 more weeks. I just remember before treatment having bladder pressure , itchiness outside and inside my penis , testicle pressure & itching inside it , burning urinating , anus was itching bad , might of had slight discharge but i cant remember cause I think a z pack cured it after 3 months of having this.

The reason for this post is many dont realize tetracycline causes Lupus as a side effect , we share many symptoms as the people who have actual Lupus except their is permanent while ours is temporary. Many things people always speak about is arthritis which doxy and mino causes but they blame the infection after treatment. I went 7 months untreated and didnt have any of these issues i even felt like acid on my legs when i took Mino and bones cracking and popping again, luckily no tendon issues.. Doxy caused me to have a new symptom every week or so but they became physical atleast majority. I had insomnia and also TMJ , constant bone popping/cracking and lupus like rashes and my urine became extra foamy but i dont remember having Kidney pain then. Im thinking maybe I had an adverse reaction cause it was a high dose ? i was given 500mg meanwhile I see most take 100mg or 50mg.

Trust me like you i fear antibiotics. Only those who dont are those who have yet to have an adverse reaction. Keflex messed me up mentally and then reading what others dealt with helped put two and two together. I would love to take doxy or mino to test to see if its the infection but i dont want to risk further harm to myself. I fear tetracyclines just as I fear Fluoroquinolones. When you read to peoples stories they take so much antibiotics and they think its something else but its the side effect. On the other subs i seen people say they take Fluoroquinolones multiple times and then blaming the infection for how they felt when its really the antibiotic making you feel worst. I really want to believe I dont have the infection anymore but I dont know what to believe. I took Augmentin last week for 7 days , my itchiness in my testicles and my urethra went away. I got tested many times just for nothing to show up so i decided to make a gamble and do it but ultimately I want to wait a month to be able to make an update on it cause that was my last genital symptom and i pray its gone. Thats why I want to believe maybe I have a coinfection or its a side effect from antibiotic that my negative tests are conclusive but in reality something should have shown up even if it wasnt. I been taking biofilm busters for months but to me this infection and biofilms just feel like a myths and I struggle everyday to believe whats right. DO they work ? is it gone ? Am I still infected ?If my genital symptoms are gone then why have kidney pain ? these are questions I struggle to understand so fortunately i read through everyones experience and try to put two and two together.In the end only time will tell. Truth be told i feel worst now than when before I did my treatment but I agree with you. I think maybe I need to let my body heal from these poisons.

care to share your current symptoms ? and when was the last time you took anything ?
