This post is about being in the end stages of menopause. You
may be given the wrong medication while dealing with another health issue.
The experience of having a bad reaction to the medication
that was prescribed to me upon having an emergency tooth extraction (1) Motrin
500 mg (2) Penicillin 500 mg. Instructions was to take them every six hours.
After four days of being on this medication the pain from the tooth extraction
had lessen. Meanwhile, keep in mind that I am in my post menopause stages. (It
is coming to an end)
I took notice that my stomach was hurting and paining real
bad. I could not walk upright and I was curled up in the bed in a fetal position
rocking. I was trying to calm the pain down. My mouth was dry, I was nauseated,
weak, no strength, my vision was blurred, there was tightness in my chest, cramps
and I had not had a bowel movement in days. Then I realized that I was losing
weight. I mean I was sick!
To make a long story short I went back to a local hospital
emergency room and the doctor told me that I suffered severe side effects from
the antibiotics which were intestinal problems, dehydration, nausea, dizziness,
and I might add vaginal infection. I was just messed up from the waist down! The
doctor did not put me on any medication but he did put me on a strict diet. I
only could eat white boiled rice, applesauce, apple juice, toast, drink plenty
of water. This experience was very scary for me and exhausting!
There is much more to this post menopause experience then
what I just gave. However, my best advice that I would give is that you inform
your dentist that you are in menopausal stages and be very detailed with him.
Also you will want to keep a note of what types of medications you can take and
the one you can’t.
My finale words:
Menopause brings so many different and odd problems that women can
experience.
