Zeb you are right....I feel much better now....with the nitrofurantoin I could feel my lungs.. and bones....I was thinking going to Heaven and the doctor said :go on ,it is only a side effect. Now I NEVER will have this drug again....I take the CS and pro-biotics....and it works!!!!!
At the moment I cannot eat oranges and acid food...to much flatulence. It takes a long time to feel better after the Nitrofurantoin.... I HAVE TO TELL THE WOMAN OF THE WORLD...don' t take Nitrofurantoin...it causes bladder disease. I saw it in a book of C.Norman Shealy M.D. Ph.D The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Healing Remedies 1998 Element Books Limited I have the Dutch translation ISBN 3-8290-1713-8 (page 379) 3 medicine are not good for bladder disease Nitrofurantoin Methenaminemandelaat Cyclofosfamide What ,in the future , can I tell my familydoctor,he said you don' t like anti-biotica...but that its not true....I become more ill....and nobody helps ...only sending bills and wrong medicine...I am angry about that all.

Doctors frequently give to women that have chronic urinary infections as prevention to be taken on a daily basis. Someone wrote that it can cause bladder disease and they are right. If a person has interstitial cystitis, it can damage the bladder lining.It works differently than other antibiotics they give because it kind of scrapes the lining and can irritate the bladder. The only advantage to it, is that it is primarily for bladder infections and if a person gets them alot, doctors dont want to use other antibiotics like penicillin because then if you need penicillin for a different type of infection, you can become allergic when you need it. The other danger with nitrofurantion, is that it can cause a type of permanant punemonia condition of the lungs esp used over a period of time in older adults. Doctors rarely mention this side effect. I was wondering if the people that were having problems with DMannose were sensitive to acid or fruit because this is what the base is made of. Also regarding rib pain, This can be a symptom of babesia when one has lyme disease. However, it sounds as thou the people who wrote about this were having more internal issues like gallbladder etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All-new Yahoo!
