I recently had to go on a 5-day course of Zithromax for an upper respiratory infection. That has gotten better for the most part.
Prior to this, I was on 1,000 mg of Biaxin daily. After the Zithromax, I took a 6-day break from Abx. Today, I'm feeling bad again and got some old symptoms back - muscle pain, frontal headache, nausea, sweats, etc. Is it really plausible 6 days off Abx could cause issues?
I did some activities yesterday too which may be aggravating my body somewhat, but not a ton. I always wonder if Biaxin suppresses Babesia symptoms to a degree?
This sucks. I'm so tired of Abx.

I have different symptoms than you, but when I missed a few days of Biaxin, my symptoms of air hunger, muscle twitching, and joint pain would come back.
One time, I stopped taking Levaquin for a few days and felt like I had the flu. When I added the Levaquin back in, I got better right away.
So I think a few days off abx could do this to you. I love my abx.
