I am going crazy because one of the antibiotics I am on (Fortaz) makes me so itchy I want to crawl out of my skin!
When I am in the hospital, if I feel itchy I am allowed Benadryl through my IV which works INSTANTLY and then I am no longer itchy. But at home I can only take the Benadryl by mouth and that doesn't help at all!
I only have to last until Friday but I am not sure if I can. :(

- Hi! My name is Jen, I am a 30 year old who has Cystic Fibrosis. I originally started this blog to keep track of my time on the double lung transplant list. Well after 2 LONG years and a lot of bumps in the road I finally received my transplant on December 2nd, 2010. Now I write about life post-tx and all that goes along with it! :)

just answering your question on my blog...
Tricia has had two ports, but there was a possible infection around her second port last year about the time of the transplant, so they removed it (which is common). She has had a PICC Line since late last year. She is going to ask about having another port placed when she talks with her docs tomorrow.
Hang in there! This last admission I decided to have red man syndrome and then a reaction to 2 of the antibiotics. I agree, the IV takes the itch away immediatly, pill form takes to long. I'll tell you what when I started breaking out in hives they came and gave me 50 of benedryl...one minute I was talking and the next I was out..lol. hey get whatever works best for you. take care:)
