Pelvic Inflamatory Disease And Doxycycline

After spending 9 fun filled hours in the ER yesterday, they sent me home with a diagnosis of Pelvic Inflmatory Disease. I have moderate (but fairly tolerable) pain/cramping in my left lower quadrant on my tummy, and vaginal cramping - almost like starting a horrible period, but I'm not. During the several pelvic exams, things were... well... very tender down there. No fever. And for once in my life no D as a symptom!!

They gave me a whopping dose of antibiotic last night and a shot in the butt :o ouch. Now I'm taking doxycycline.

Any experience with either you can share?

I took Doxycycline for 21 days. It's strong stuff, and afterward I battled what I thought was candida, but ended up being gluten intolerance, or maybe both. Take lots of probiotics during and after!! I hope it works for you!

hi

i just fininshed doxycyline for bronchitis. i react easily to antibiotics (nausea etc) but i did well with it. i did continue my probiotic though. are they sure it is PID, because i have been in ER's before for similar symptoms, i have a history of cervical issues. they will often "over treat" and "over diagnose" PID in ER's because it can cause infertility if left untreated. they shoudl have done swabs for things that can cause PID. that was my experience which was horrible, they kept saying oh you must have an std, but the swabs always came back negative. my dr thinks i had cervicitis a few time. if you have any personal questions about it, feel free to pm me. i hope you feel better!!!

Thanks for the advice! Yes, they did swabs and all sorts of other tests. I also react to antibiotics, and I've never tried this one so I hope I can stick with it. Lots of probiatics for me!!

My husband took it for 3 weeks recently for Lyme--he had no side effects at all.

      Some interesting articles regarding the use of Zinc Carnosine to help heal gastric ulcers, gastritis and intestinal permeability. I would consult a medical professional about it's use. https://www.nature.com/articles/ncpgasthep0778 https://www.rupahealth.com/post/clinical-applications-of-zinc-carnosine---evidence-review https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7146259/ https://www.fallbrookmedicalcenter.com/zinc-l-carnosine-benefits-dosage-and-safety/

      He is. Which makes everything even more difficult. I’m not a believer in “staying for the kids” but I have nowhere to go and it’s not just me, it’s me plus my babies. We live in a beautiful place, lots of land in the country and me and the kids love the place we’ve called home for their entire lives. But Im seeing that he’ll never change, that my kids deserve a happy healthy Momma, and that staying in this as is will be the early death of me. Then I look at the scars covering my entire body…this disease and the chronic stress I’ve been enduring for years that tell me I’m no longer beautiful and no one will ever look at me with interest again. I try self care, try to give myself grace so I can just start loving myself enough to gain strength but the slightest sparkle in my eye and skip in my step attracts his wrath and it all comes crashing ten fold. Life is just absolutely railing me from every single direction leaving me wanting to wave that white flag bc I don’t feel like there’s much hope no matter what happens.
