The last time I took prescription medication was a couple few years ago when I had a UTI and was given a sulfa-based antiobiotic. Major adverse reactions. The medication they gave me to combat the pain I was also allergic to as it turns out.

Have not taken any prescribed medications since then. Have also had 3 infections since then and have treated it with cranberry juice and vitamin c. I'm absolutely terrified of taking meds again for fear of having another serious reaction to something.

Mom's been Googling it though and found that leaving a UTI untreated multiple times can lead to kidney damage. Unsuprisingly I was dragged to the doctor.

I didn't start any fights with the medical personal. I did however scowl fiercely the entire time.

No reactions to the new antibiotics yet, other than being ridiculously tired. It's making me feel really slow too. Like my brain is working at half speed.

LOL - Got my mom freaked out though. She's going to check on me in the morning to ensure I'm not having serious adverse reactions to the meds.

Cross your fingers for me!

P.S.
On a side note, I'm in love with their height scale. According to their ruler I've grown an entire inch for the first time in 25 years. Yay!
