:smile: antibiotics, infections

I am scheduled for surgery in March. Has one had an infection after surgery w/Dr. Aceves?

(Just trying to get first hand information!)

Do you remember what antibiotics they gave you?

pre-op? post-op? got home developed infection more antibiotics?

(gals:) Did you get a yeast infection after?

(Think I might ask my PCP for a Diflucan)

This is my biggest fear!

D.

I know this is an older post, did you end up getting answers elsewhere? I just had surgery on the 7th and think I may be getting a yeast infection from the antibiotics. I am going to call my surgeon tomorrow and see if they can call me in a diflucan.

Wow! This is crazy! I thought it was just me too. I had surgery on June 23 and since then have been dealing with what I think is a yeast infection. I've tried Monistat which didn't help much. I now have an appointment with my gyn on Monday. They were going to call a prescription in but I can't take pills yet. So I have to go in. Hopefully, they will give a me a shot instead of liquid.

I generally end up with a yeast infection after being on antibiotics and they gave me three bags of antibiotic fluid while I was in the hospital. I have all the beginning symptoms of a yeast infection (burning and itching). I have been able to take the prilosec, demoral and other small to medium pills and the diflucan is tiny so I should be ok taking that orally. I'll update when I know more tomorrow.

When did you start taking pills again?
