lightheaded spacey and pressure, suggestions on type of antbiotic

[Weavor]

I posted a couple months back with a real dillemma. Was very lightheaded and dizzy, had multiple mris and cats scans done, all comin up normal. Although some of the symptoms have subsided a little, the only thing doctors suggest is allergies. I have been on allergy shots for a couple weeks now, feelin iffy at best. Right now, doctors are suggesting that i rule out lyme disease before we go on, because these unexplained dizziness and fatige could be a sign of lyme. My question to this board, is that if i wanted to try an antibiotic, because i have almost every symptom of sinus infection with pressure and headaches, yet never been prescribed anything for that, which antibiotic should i do? I was readin about levaquin and doxycylcin. I just want some insight from others. Its strage how these doctors were so quick to give me anti depressents and anxiety pills but not even a chance with anitbiotic. So i want to know what to ask for and see if antibiotics would clear this up. Thanks in advance.

If doctors don't know what is going on, they will ALWAYS diagnose anxiety or stress. ALWAYS! They don't want to admit that they don't have an answer to your health problems and they want to collect their high fees, and they don't want to feel bad about taking your money without providing a worthwhile service, so they blame your anxiety for your health problems, make you feel worse, make themselves feel professional, and you go home feeling worse for going to them. Many doctors are JERKS!

stay away from levaquin. levaquin and fluoroquinolones are potent chemotherapeutic drugs which should really only be prescribed in life or death situations. im 7 months post avelox which comes from the fluoroquinolone family like levaquin does;ive been in a wheelchair ever since. muscle, joint damage, torn tendons, liver failure, heart problems, vision , hearing loss, skin lessions , etc. my life and thousands of others have been destroyed by levaquin and other fluoroquinolone drugs avoid at all cost.

Have they not given you antihistamines? If it is allergies, that would seem to be the first course of treatment. And they can tell from looking at the mucous in your sinuses if it's an infection. Is it green or clear? Clear means allergies and green means infection. And you should definitely not take an antibiotic if you don't have an infection.

Not all the time. When my allergies get real bad I get thick, disgusting, green mucus, but don't get an infection.
