Multiple Illnesses Posted: 03-29-05 22:26pm
I've been having a lot of things wrong
with me, one of them is bv that i'm taking
medication for...Another is a simple
complication that a lot of women have and
i'm not worried about....But a main
concern is this infection I got after
having a head cold. It's so bad, gives me
terrible headaches and severe pressure in
my ears that I can't pop on my own, and
it's making me go deaf in my left ear and
it started in my right one now too. I
think I might be slowly healing on my own,
but i'm worried if an infection goes
un-treated, if it'll just get worse and
permanently damage my hearing, or if the
only meds for it can hurt the baby? I'm
about 19 weeks now. Any suggestions on if
I should spend money for possibly harmful
medication or see if i'll heal on my own??

Sherry you need to go and see your doc..
This sounds like a middle ear infection
and should be treated with some
antibiotics. As you are all ready on them
for the b.V. You may need a different
kind to deal with both.. Make sure that
when you are on antibiotics you eat some
yogurt daily to keep up your good
bactiera..

Yeah, I keep up on drinking a lot of milk
(love it with chocolate tho ^_^). I never
was sure what kind of medication the bv
stuff is......Nasty little pill. I'll be
done with that one in a couple of days
tho.....Now should I call my normal family
dr or my ob?
