When I finish antibiotics, I take probiotics or I end up sick again soon because antibiotics knock down your immune system in your gut. Might help
@seaglass I've been taking probiotics with them and before then too

Antibiotics don't deal with viruses only bacterial infections.

@HootyTheNightOwl I stated no such thing. I made a simple statement of fact. It seemed that a link was being made between ending the taking of an antibiotic and continuing/recurring illness. My statement was intended to point up that there might be other reasons that illness is recurring. There's no way I could know what they might be even if I were a doctor. I am very sorry that illness is such a burden.
@FreddieUK All I got from the original post was that @pripyatamusementpark had literally finished a course of antibiotics the other day - and now they are feeling sick again.

Reading that, as it was written, suggests that they may be more frustrated that they've just finished medicine to help them to get better - and now they feel sick again... or perhaps, they spend a lot of winter on antibiotics and they could be thinking that the doctor might want them to take a different type and they're frustrated about that because taking the medicine affects them in ways other than helping them to just feel better???

Personally speaking, I would be frustrated in this situation, too - not because "I have just finished a course of antibiotics, therefore, I should be good for the rest of winter" as you put it... but because I don't like the other things that I now have to treat to deal with being on the antibiotics in the first place and getting sick on top of that is just the cherry on top of the cake.

Most of us are aware of what antibiotics treat and what they don't... some people aren't always aware that a course of antibiotics do more than just clear the original infection. Thrush is a good example of something both men and women can get as a result of taking antibiotics - and it hasn't been ruled out that this is potentially the problem in this case, too.

Manofoz · 61-69, M
@pripyatamusementpark I heard people are getting sick from that jab
@Manofoz I work with elementary school students so it's like a big petri dish

@pripyatamusementpark maybe you answered your question as to why you are sick
Lilymoon · F
You're probably run down maybe. Check with Doc maybe wrong antibiotics
@Lilymoon That's my plan

I'm so sorry. Could be the weather or your immune system is really low. 🫂
@mindstruggle I think it's my immune system and the antibiotics made me more susceptible to getting sick again
Maybe you need a flu shot?
@DrScissorhands already had it
@pripyatamusementpark This is worrying. Please seek medical attention if it persists longer.

I am hopefully getting over my third illness in a row. It's been a rough season.
ViciDraco · 36-40, M
@Miram I mask up when I feel sick. I worry more about infecting others than I worry about others infecting me 😅
@ViciDraco I just got over Bronchitis and sinus infection...

Now I have this barky cough ..congestion in my nose/sinuses and fatigue
ViciDraco · 36-40, M
@pripyatamusementpark bronchitis is nasty. It'll keep coming back at ya. I've heard a lot of people describing what you have. It's one of the things going around.
