Hey !
So he is on Levaquin 750mg for 5 days... Its a very heavy hitter and can come with some really bad side effects so we are hoping no ruptured tendons etc. Also on 20mg prednisone for 10 days.
Even tho our Doctor knows this isnt Covid he wanted the test anyway, Took less than 5 mins ( drive thru) and we will have results in 3 days at most. Steve said it was uncomfortable but no big deal.. Steve will be seeing a pulmonary specialist ( hope that is not a long wait) and we follow up with our Doctor in 2 weeks or sooner or to the ER if he spikes a Temp or has more difficulty breathing..
He has to stop his Trazadone and Half his zoloft as taking with Levaquin can cause Long/ Prolonged QT and we dont need a damn heart issue on top of all this!
If this doesnt clear the infection then he will need IV antibiotic and be in the hospital, and I wont be able to be with him.. So ummm yeah this med needs to work..
