I’m kinda going through that now- minus the test. I’ve just found out that I’ve got pneumonia and both antibiotics I was prescribed interact badly with both my epilepsy meds and my painkillers. 2 outta 3 of my drs are on holiday and they won’t even let me leave a message for the third dr. They were filled by a different pharmacist who doesn’t check for drug interactions and the doctor I saw doesn’t know if it’s good or not to take them. So I texted my usual pharmacist- who’s on days off- and asked him what I should do. He said the one I have taken ( strong antibiotic) should be fine but it’ll give me more migraines and it’ll make me not want to drink fluids- which it has, but he wants me to hold off on taking the other one until he can check it out. I have to take my epilepsy meds and my painkillers; so I’ll just take the one antibiotic and wait to hear back from the pharmacist
I take 11 pills at night and 11 during the day (different ones). Who knows whether they are all okay? Good luck with the doctor.
