so what started out to be a very bad cold a month ago. then a very bad bout of bronchitis that lasted 3 weeks. and know i got a recurring ear infection. ive been taking antibiotics. 2 rounds of azithromycin for 5 days totaling 10 days. know i got amoxicillin/clavulanate 875mg-125mg for 10 days. but its causing me side effects like stomach issues and know weird bone pain. the strong antibiotic seems to lessen the ear pain but after that it wares off and comes back. i only got 4 days of it left. and the ear pain still just comes and goes. its killing me. im not sure did i catch some nasty infection that just doesn't want to leave my body?

anyone else ever had a problem like this?

i mean the cold happened more then a month ago. and ive been having issues ever since.

The stomach issue is because of the strong antibiotic, go buy some Floraster, its a probiotic. It will put the good flora back in your gut that is needed. Antibiotics that strong kill all the flora. If the ear problem persists after completing the antibiotic, go back to the dr, he/she can rx a ear drop medication for the ear. My daughter just recently went through this same thing, only she could not hear out of her ear.

Take care.
