I'm having some awful side effects from these antibiotics, funny vision, light headed, muscle weakness, headache, dodgey stomach, itching.
In normal circumstances I would have stopped taking them but I've just been discharged from hospital after having a serious infection caused by the catheter introducing some super bug (called ESBL) to my bladder during my c section.
Had some strong iv antibiotics in hospital and they sent me home with trimethroprim to finish the job. However I'm concerned about the side effects I'm experiencing and don't want to make myself ill again. Has anyone had any similar reactions to trimethroprim? If so what did your Dr reccomend?
