Why do I always get side effects?
My sinus infection got better but wasn't cured by Amoxicillin so the doctor gave me Zithromax. I feel horrible from it. Not only did I get the digestive side effects but also the rarer headache, dizziness, and fatigue side effects. It seems that every medicine that can give me digestive problems do and any drowsy/dizziness causing medicine makes me that way (with the exception of the beta blocker I take). Luckily, I don't have any allergies, but I did have an emergency side effect that happens in only 1 out of 120 people from taking an anti nausea medcine. This happens to me even when I don't read the side effects ahead of time so it isn't just psychosomatic. It also makes me afraid of taking new perscription medicine. Is anyone else suseptible to bad side effects? I am hoping that I can make it through the next four days on this stuff. The first dose is a double dose so the rest shouldn't be as bad. I'll take it later in the day too so I can just sleep instead of being in misery all afternoon.
