Constanst vaginal infection with GBS

[shineon]

Hello

This is the third month since I've started taking antibiotics. First time vaginal swab (and cervix) was investigated, strep beta hemolytic group b was found. 10days Xiclav therapy was prescribed. After that, strep was gone, but e colli was there, so Bactrim was prescribed for 5 days. 3rd time only enterococcus faecalis was reported and nothing was prescribed until after 20days the doctor repeated examination. 4th swab indicated presence of strep b (second time) and enterococcus faecalis, amoxiscilin is prescribed for 8-10 days.

I have Raynaud syn suspected, tonsillectomy done, mitral valve prolapse, acne papulopustulosa, painful menstruations, but regular, and sometimes UTI.

Any idea where does this strep comes from all the time? I'd had enough of antibiotics, I think the cause is yet unknown, cause it keeps coming back.

Many of us do have step B. Unless it's causing us symptoms, they typically don't treat it unless we are pregnant.  Once you have it, getting rid of it is not easy. It tends to colonize in our bowels.
