I took it once for 10 days no issues. I needed it agian about 9 months later, but after few days started tendon issues, had to stop, and will never be able to take it again. I was fighting pseudomonas so had to use an IV antibiotic.

@sherrig
Sorry to hear you were experiencing pseudomonas...it sounds like you were able to clear it. Thankfully IV antibiotics worked, it appears. Have you been peudomonas free since?

May I ask what it feels like to have Pseudomonas and whether you had the coloured sputum?

My GP said he didn't think I had it, but still wanted me to take this antibiotic for a month or until I was symptom free for a whole week. What if it doesn't change the situation and I have risked all these side effects.

I have had a different cough the last two weeks or so, which is the main sympton now, just a gurgling feeling (with mucus) which was in my throat area, but now has descended into the base of my lungs...and the mucus coughed up is white and quite thick and sticky

Can you enlighten me as to what you experienced? Much appreciated.
Narelle
