I got a staph infection & went right to the doctor who treated it with a antibiotic that is resistant to MRSA.

I don't believe you wrote what you wanted to say. If you a bacterial infection, the bug is susseptible or resistant to the antibiotic.

I acted fast enough that I didn’t wait for it to get better on its own or become MRSA. Within a week after my staph treatment I had an upper respiratory infection, earaches & a horrible sore throat. My doctor isn’t too concerned. However I am as the pills I am on now make me dizzy and not myself. My doctor told me hand washing is very important & to keep a roll of paper towels in the bathroom. He says towels spread germs. All I know is that I have never felt so badly in my life & if I don’t feel better by next week I am going back. I have never felt so weak in my life.

This doesn't sound good. This may be an adverse drug reaction, or maybe MRSA, or something else. Do you have a temperature? What's the name of the drug?

I probably didn’t. I am quite dizzy & not myself at all. I was on levaquin 500 mg for staph for 10 days. Then I got the upper respiratory infection,ear aches & sore throat. I am on Zotex Lax for 15 days & Clarithromycin 500 mgs for 10 day plus Tussionex cough medicine at night. I don’t have a fever but just am not myself. I think I will go back to the doctor Monday as I can’t think straight and find myself sleeping much of the time. I stopped the Tussionex as I didn't like how I felt on that at all.
