    Antibiotics a problem during carb up week of show?

    Here it is Wednesday before my contest and I catch a nasty sinus infection. It started Monday and I hoped it was a cold but it's turned much worse. I just picked up and started a run of antibiotics. Im taking Levaquin, 500mg ED for a week.

    Does anyone know if this will mess with my prep??

    I could hold off until after the show, but the sinus issue could be problem if I dont take the antibiotics. Last time this happened I felt better the day after starting the meds, so I know this will at least help the way I feel.

    Will taking sudafed, benedryl mess with my prep at all?? I can deal with the symptoms without meds as long as the antibiotic is working.

    thanks guys
