The doctor in the house i will like you to assist me on this matter. |

Is the discharge foul-smelling? Is there any itching? Do you ever have pain during intercourse? Do you have pain in the lower abdomen? It sounds like your doctor is dumbing things down for your to understand but what he's saying sounds reasonable. I'll listen to him if I were you. Be patient and follow his prescription. If you're the discharge is still there in a week or if you develop any new symptoms, you should get a second opinion, preferably from a gynaecologist. |

Now poster, Youve left out a some important detail. Was any High Vaginal Swab or even a urine test done ? If yes, what was the organism(s) Isolated ? From the list of medications you mentioned, it appears you were being treated for both bacterial and fungal infections. Peflacine is ususally given for gram -ve and +ve bacterial infection. Nizoral , sebrastren cream are both antifungal medication. Im sorry but without telling us what specific organism you were being treated for or without a recent microbioloby lab report, its unlikely you can get any effective treatment. |

T-Spayne: @OP I agree. A thick, white, odourless discharge sounds like a fungal infection while a yellow, foul-smelling one is likely to be bacterial. The thing is that taking antibiotics increases the risk of having a fungal overgrowth. Plus antibiotics can make fungal infections harder to cure so its possible that you started with both a bacterial infection and a fungal one, and now, just the fungus is left. Fungi are normally present in the va.gina and aside from some itching, they are usually harmless so I wouldn't worry about it. Keep taking your drugs and go back to see the doctor in a week or two. Im sorry but without telling us what specific organism you were being treated for or without a recent microbioloby lab report, its unlikely you can get any effective treatment. Not true. You can definitely treat pelvic infections without knowing the actual cause. Its even recommended by the WHO for bush places like Nigeria. You need to understand that those tests are not always available here and in any case, most of our people can't afford them. You just need to cover the most likely causes and then test those who don't get better. Another advantage is that the patient can start treatment immediately instead of waiting for 2-3 days for your culture result. |

Am so gratful for the reply so far.I did three kind of test. I shall list them out and the result of each of test. :URINE(yielded moderate growth of Staph.anrens after 24hrs of incubation at 37 'oc.) the second test was HVS-MICRO (pus cells-0-2hpf Epith cells-(H) , yeast cell-H, T.vaginalis -NEY. The third test was called Culture( yielded moderate growth of Candida albican and Scanty Staph.anreus After 24hrs incubation at 37'oc) i hope the doctor knws wht the actual spelling especially (annens,and albican).Thanks |
Re: This Is Urgent Please. by TSpayne: 10:35am On Sep 05, 2011 |
shegosay:Many thanks poster for confirming that you DID do tests and have the results. When you say T.vaginalis -NEY, do u mean it was NEGATIVE ? The correct terms are ''Staph. aureus'' and ''Candida albicans'' It appears the peflacine was prescribed for the staph infection and the nizoral and cream for the candida. Staph can manifest as a yellowish discharge so I dont think your Dr was wrong by saying the drugs are ''washing out'' the infection when the discharge turned white. Since youve already started on the drugs its best you complete the doses. But if the infection persists afterwards, it may mean you have a resistant infection. In the meantime follow your current treatment plan. Any further questions or enquiries concerning STIs can be directed to www.facebook.com/mytotalhealth or totalhealthng21@gmail.com |
