[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 367335, member: 1233"] Star, please do ALL you can to stay home in bed or on the couch. You need at least the 12-13 hours of sleep a day and to be totally honest it probably is not enough sleep. Your body MUST have rest to kick this batch of infections. I do want to urge you to add acidophilus to your medication regimen, or ask the doctor for an rx for diflucan. Most likely you will end up with a yeast infection from the antibiotics. The metronidazole will work on some causes but others will flourish from all the germ killing stuff you are taking. Acidophilus (get the kind you have to keep in the fridge after opening) will deal with the problems and help support your body's natural good bacteria fairly gently. You may notice thick saliva that may or may not look kind of white. It is thrush, or a yeast infection in your mouth. It is common when you have as many infections as you have. I had a nasty case of it when I had the cellulitis. Diflucan is given as one tablet but it works for a couple of weeks. If you can eat yogurt it will help too. I am so sorry you are so sick. Can DF make homemade chicken noodle soup for you? I can give him the easy recipe that Jessie uses. If you can stomach garlic, add it to anything and everything you can. It helps fight infection and every little bit helps. Sending lots of hugs!!!!!! Tell DF that if he doesn't make you stay in bed or laying on the couch that I will not be happy!!!! [/QUOTE]
