I know what you mean. I've been on oral antibiotics constantly practically for years now, but I am getting resistant to all orals and only IV works now, and it's not even great. I was in the hospital for 3 weeks in March and now I'm on Home IVs again a month later. All the ABX's have made my kidney function decrease to 40%, and my liver enzyme levels are through the roof. They don't even work that well anymore. It gets rid of a lot of my sick symptoms but I don't have much energy and get out of breath easily. My FEV1 has gone from about 32-33 last year to staying around 27-28 now. It's kind of scaring me..but I have started feeling better on a regular basis since April because I have forced myself to do things and get out of the house a lot and not lie in bed all day, it helps my breathing and overall wellbeing. I hope you start feeling better soon, I think we all have bad months and some of us have bad years.
