zenislev Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 i think it would be wise to ask your doctor kung pwede magpagawa ng urine culture test, para makita kung may tutubo na bacteria sa culture media and pwede din siya ma-identify kung meron... that way the proper meds will be prescribed for you... kaya lang you should discontinue the cipro muna kasi altered ang magiging resulta nito... :mtc: Nagpacheck up ako kanina at yan din ang sinabi nung doktora sa akin. actually ganito, bukas daw, pa Culture Test daw ako first thing in the morning, pero makukuha ko pa raw ang result after a week pa... binigyan nya ako ng 2 sets ng gamot, though di ko masyado mabasa the first one is 500mg of Azyth (I think) 2 pcs daw na one time ko iinumin. then another set of meds macrodnit... 100mg (cant read it na) 7 days ko daw iinumin. malamang 2x a day kasi 14 pcs yung pinabibili nya for 7 days intake. I have to drink the medz daw agad para di daw lumala yung UTI ko. my urine test today shows PUS Cells 4-6/hpf and RBC 0-2/hpf. after the 7 days of medz, another urine test.. Yung Azyth po ba na medz, sabay ko po bang iinumin yon? di nya kasi nailagay sa prescription eh. di kasi pwedeng magkasunod dahil dalwang 500mg yon.. Quote Link to comment
gilghost Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 False positives may be associated with medical conditions such as recent acute illnesses and allergies. HIV antibody tests are highly sensitive, meaning they react preferentially with HIV antibodies, but not all positive or inconclusive HIV tests mean the person is infected by HIV. Risk history, and clinical judgement should be included in the assessment, and a confirmation test (Western blot) should be administered. An individual with an inconclusive test should be re-tested at a later date. :mtc: i'm going to have my 2nd test tomorrow.... wish me luck Quote Link to comment

Yes, you can take 2 tablets of Azithromycin one after the other. I suggest that you increase your fluid intake too. docs nagpatest na aq twice for hiv 1st on the 1st month after the deed and 2nd after 4 months, both are negative...may chances p b n magpostive un? HIV screening tests detect the presence of antibodies to the virus, not the presence of the virus itself. It takes some time for you body to develop antibodies to the virus and generally, it takes 3 months for it to develop but in some persons, it make take up to 6 months. If it would give you peace of mind, then I'd suggest having another test done on the 6th month. Quote Link to comment

Anyhow, yung macrodantin po 2x a day daw po ang intake? Pano po yun, 1 tablet per 12 hours? or sabay din? saka nabasa ko sa internet yung azythromycin, anti-chlamidia pala yun? fluid intake, mga 8 to 10 glasses of water a day daw eh.. anu po ba ang situation ng isang full blown UTI?
