21 in 21 - Weekly Photo #24 - w/c 14/6/21




This is why I haven't been here.  Unfortunately by the beginning of last week a cyst I'd had for a while became infected.  My GP put me on antibiotics last Monday (14th June) but by Thursday not only was there no improvement, things were actually worse.

A referral to the hospital followed and I was admitted, spending 5 nights there to enable IV antibiotics to be given.

I came home on Tuesday with oral antibiotics to hopefully clear the infection completely. 

The antibiotics are Linezolid.  Unfortunately I cannot take pennicillen or the usual alternative erythromycin.  Yep I'm special!

  1. Poor you! That's an awful lot of antibiotics. It must have been a very nasty infection. You must have felt awful. Glad you are home again and on the road to recovery.
