I want to visit Spain with a friend. We are both males in our late twenties, and we’d like to enjoy the beach, good food, and partying. We’ve been to different Spanish cities before, but now we want to try Málaga or Valencia for the first time. What do you recommend?
This situation feels a bit complicated, so I want to explain it clearly.
My urologist prescribed me Azithromycin without Doxycycline, and I finished the last pill on May 5th. After reading more about treatment options, I found out that Doxycycline is often taken first for 7 days before Azithromycin.
Because of this, I went to another doctor. He wanted to first do a macrolide resistance test and then start me on Doxycycline. I had the test done yesterday, on May 18th.
The problem is that the resistance test could not be performed because I tested negative for MGEN. I think the Azithromycin I previously took may have affected the test result and made it unreliable, because I still have symptoms and don’t think the Azithromycin alone worked.
I also started taking Doxycycline yesterday after i gave my urine sample for the resistance test.
My question is: after I finish the 7 days of Doxycycline, should I ask my doctor for Azithromycin again, or would Moxifloxacin be the better option?
I was diagnosed with Mgen, but my urologist only gave me 1,500mg of Azithromycin (no Doxycycline). Because of this, I went to a different doctor who wants to run a Macrolide resistance test first and put me on 7 days course of Doxycycline.
The problem is that i finished the Azithromycin from the first doctor on May 5th and this new doctor wants the urine sample tomorrow, May 13th.
Is 8 days after the last pill long enough to get an accurate result of the resistance? I’m worried the medicine is still too active in my system and will cause a false negative or mess up the resistance test. Should I wait longer? I just want to start taking Doxycycline as soon as possible and i don‘t want to wait 3 weeks..
I tested positive for MGEN, and my urologist prescribed me Azithromycin: two 500mg pills on Day 1, and one 500mg pill on Day 2. I took the first two pills on an empty stomach, and after approximately three hours, I had diarrhea. On Day 2, I had no problems with the last pill. My question is: Will the diarrhea on the first day have any effect on the medication?
