Hello everyone, hope you're all okay.
I'm having a lot of problems with infections at the moment. I had cystitis a few weeks ago, now I have a vaginal infection, a fungal infection & upper respiratory infection all at the same time. I'm on amoxycillin 500mg for the respiratory infection which I've had for a few months now but GP didn't want to treat with antibiotics because of the warfarin & using ointment for the skin infection.
I've got to wait for the swab result of the other infection to come back before they can treat it.
I've also been suffering all over itching which I've got to take antihistamines for & use aqueous cream with menthol which hopefully will relieve it. The GP ordered some blood tests to check my thyroid function , liver/renal function ,ferretin, iron studies & FBC. She is worried about my iron levels because it keeps dropping within a couple of months of stopping iron tablets. She is also worried because of my reduced kidney function.
Is it normal to have infections so often?
love
