Hi guys,

Is there any alternative to doxy to reduce the bacterial load? I want to take doxy + azythromicin but I cannot take doxy since it gives me intracranial hypertension.

Thanks?!

Hi guys,

I have been diagnosed with ureaplasma about 2 years ago after sleeping with some chick (only after that I found out that she smelled funny when she was sleeping). I was prescribed doxy and felt great for a couple of weeks. Of course infection would come back but somehow I tested negative although symptoms were persistent.

Last night I had pelvic pain, urgency and irritation but after taking 250 mg of azithromycin I felt MUCH better and immediately fell asleep and slept like a baby. I don't know if it's linked but now I have problems with my right knee and foot, I think I have inflammation.

I cannot take doxy since the last time I took it I had intracranial hypertension (thinking I might have developed it after taking 2-3 courses of doxy).

Are there any alternatives to doxy? Cause, if I understand correctly the treatment course is 2 weeks doxy + azythromicin.. I will take azythromicin for sure but is there any alternative to doxy? I still can't understand which one of these kills the bacteria and which one just stops it from reproducing.

My life has been hell for the past year so I hope I will beat it.

Thank you all!
