I went to a walk in clinic and was prescribed antibiotics for bronchitis but now I am loosing my hearing, my hearing is almost gone.
Does anyone know if this is because of the medicine and if so will this hearing loss go away or will I not get my hearing back?
I really like to be able to hear, and right now I can hear almost nothing, and this is worring me a lot.
So if anyone has any experience with medicine effecting your hearing did you get your hearing back??

that's happened to me, too, when i've taken far too many antibiotics. the thing with antibiotics is that you must drown them with a lot of water. and i suggest, you must consult your doctor about this so he could, perhaps, lessen the dosage.

So this will get better maybe? Because right now its really bothering me also I only have one pill left, they gave me the kind that you take two on the first day, then one each day there after for four days, I have never had this happen,
also this was the first time I met this doctor, it was a walk in clinic, I could not breathe and I was trying to avoid going to the emergency room, now in addition to not being able to take a deep breath without coughing extremely badly, I can not hear hardly anything at all....
I hope that my hearing comes back fast,

They help out a lot, but also remember that the Bronchitis has to also run its course, meaning take all your meds, drink a lot of water, inhale a lot of steam, have those Halls Cough Drops handy, and eat a lot of Chicken Noodle Soup. I have been doing all of these things, since I do have it at the moment, but I am in the homestretch stage of this.

I think you should go back to the clinic and tell your doctor about it. It may be the effect of the antibiotic or of the bronchitis. Just try for the moment while waiting to drink a lot of water, and relax a bit dear. And as soon as your doctor is available, go and check. If you have doubts about his opinion. I think you can go to another doctor for a second opinion. Just to make sure. Get well soon! (^^,)

I went back to the doctor, and now they say I have bacteria pnuemonia and I had a reaction to the medicine.
He gave me six more prescriptions and told me not to take the other medicine anymore, and referred me to another doctor.
I hope I hurry up and get better I don't feel good and now this medicines is making me tired.

first of all understand what is diseases .your body has 4 natural ways to eliminate toxins or wastages arising after metabolosam ie,urine,exhalation,sweat,stool, if sometime due to our wrong living style or living area toxins arise in our body which compel our body to use some extra ordinary cleansing methodes(the body or nature will use this extraordinary methodes if there is blockages in one of the four eliminating methodes)like cold,cough,fever,vomiting,diarrhea etc .if you suppress this by taking medicines it will develop in to bronchitis,pneumonia,ulcer,cancer etc,
now i dont want you to go to the doctor further ,antibiotics and all further medication will kill the good bacteria inside you .it will suppress the toxins which the body was trying to expel ,it will make your case worse. i want you to try naturopathy or self healing .before that search the web for naturopathy learn yourself and consult an naturopathy physician,i strongly doubt loss of hearing is due to antibiotic.but if u turn to naturopathy your hearing will come back .100% guarentee.its your health search and find your self.
