I had a bad reaction to an anesthesia (to stop me moving for MRI and CTscans) because at the sixth month point, no doctor could diagnose my Acute Ocular and Generalized MG. I stopped breathing and a CODE STROKE was called and I was resuscitated multiple times (an overdose of muscle suppressing in an undiagnosed MG patient) …. med paper said I got ACUTE RESPIRATORY FAILURE due to anesthesia. I am telling you this as they sent me to ICU … to recover, and within 24 to 36 hours, the med reports say I contracted three pneumonias in ICU, that the papers named each of the three.
They gave me three named antibiotics, including TOBRAMYCIN, which is not a good med for an undiagnosed MG patient …. and is on the dangerous drugs for MG list. I had TOTAL HEARING LOSS for 4 months, and had to communicate by paper pad or white board, as I was constantly intubated and later TRACHED, along with the total hearing loss, was no speech either. So I can not tell you what to take …. only what to avoid. Ask a NEUROLOGIST you TRUST. I am in remission still taking 180 mg MESTINON and 2000 mg daily of CELLCEPT. They were able to taper me off that nasty PREDNISONE, after PREDNISONE and their STATIN meds … gave me medically induced Diabetes II. After my PREDNISONE was tapered and killed, then my doctor was able to then taper and kill also any more LANTUS & LISPRO INSULIN SHOTS too.
Wishing you luck. Make sure that anyone, who wishes to do something on you, understands the risk of CERTAIN antibiotics, anesthesias, and blood thinners/anticlotting meds too.
