I want to continue running my Var and Nolva at respective 80mg/10mg Dosage does any one know if there are any complications that can be caused with these medicines. Please advise if you have any information on this thanks.

    Where to begin ... If you are doing iv antibiotics then you have been diagnosed with a mighty serious infection. If you have a pic line installed it is to protect your heart from peritonitis and you need to take it more serious. An infection can lodge in any part of your body and cause mind-boggling complications including coma and death. If your iv is just into your arm then you still have an infection that has been diagnosed as extremely serious. Infections come in two types: MSSA and MRSA. And both have extremely high mortality rates even with treatment -- over 40% die. It is very easy for an infection to get to that stage, which they must think it is if they installed an iv line. Why would you want to risk your infection getting to that point by injecting anything prior to your getting your infection cleared up? With all due respects man seems a little misguided.

    I don't know if you are familiar but Var and Nolva are oral's there is no injection required although the injection did cuase the problem, that has been discontinued so it is no longer a issue. I most certainly respect the infection what you adressed in no means answered the question at hand please read it again if you feel you have information I defintley am open ears.

    not only staphylococys aureus causes cellulitis.. and i dont agree with ur mortality rates, i dont think they apply to this case.... could u provide me where u got that info? apart from that solid advise.. .

    My apologies speedtraining I read your post quickly and must have read over the var/nolva part. I'm just really sensitive to infection issues as almost bought the crapper from one. Too many guys on here have brought up dealing with infections and some seem a little casual about it. They are serious shit. As far as var and nolva affecting post iv infection treatment I wouldn't think it would, but I'm not a doctor. The only input I'll ever give is to stay on top of even potential infection problems and deal with them immediately. Good to hear your infection has cleared up.

    Stupidhippo, there are two primary types of bacteria that cause cellulitis: streptococcus and staphylococcus aureus. Both are considered serious bacterium. But as how speedtraining is on this board it is as likely as not that his infection may have been from injecting and skin punctures, which would obviously include injection sites and are one of the primary causes of introducing the bacteria into the body. Because he said he had an iv treatment line in place it is a common treatment procedure for serious staph. aureus infections. If an infection gets into the blood stream it is called bacteremia, or septicemia and is extremely serious. In his case it could have simply been as a precaution to prevent him from developing bacteremia. MSSA and MRSA just denote whether the bacterium present is treatable by common antibiotics with MSSA being more easily treatable and MRSA being more resistant to antibiotic treatment; however, with the development of bacteremia, both have an extremely high mortality rate, even with treatment.

    I'm certain that google searching will yield results for sources, but unfortunately my sources are from first hand experience from getting a badass case of bacteremia from staph. aureus and having years of ongoing treatment and many, many surgeries and procedures because of a stupid f***kin doctor who misdiagnosed my infection as the flu. I do steroids and weight lift to keep strong and my immune system pumped to fight off further infections which I am prone to. My infection got into my lungs and damaged them permanently and just had part of my right lung removed. Infections are far more serious than people realize.

    Does any one know if Var or Nolva can weaken the immune and or weaken antibiotics this is my main concearn, I mean they give Var to Aids pacients so I can imagine it really weakening the immune system because that is exactly what AIDS does.
