Jun. 16th, 2003 01:10 pmcalled the doc. he asked me about ceftin and keflex, since i can't take erythromycin (it's grown on soy) or amoxicillin (bad stomach news).
i told him i was pretty sure ceftin and keflex were okay, so he said he'd call one in. and i can take naproxen for the ear pain, though it might upset my tummy b/c of the prednisone. i'm on nexium, so i'm not too worried about that.
after hanging up--i remembered. something with an ef in it made me really really sick right before my body blew up last year. yes. ceftin. doc gave it to me for pharyngitis. i threw up and broke out in hives and was miserable for a day after the first dose. upon checking the ingredients--hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is typically soybean oil... it also contains several preservatives i'm rather allergic to.
so i called the doctor back in a panic. his receptionist told me she'd make sure he didn't call in ceftin. *phew*
i've had a popsicle and some water and some meds today. i need to eat some food so that i can take the prednisone. i'm really tired.
i guess i can heat up some soup in the microwave. i still have half a pot of potato-kale soup. it's yummy, but i want something tomatoey. *sigh*
