Sore Throat, Cough, Prescribed Z Pack, Prednisone. Kidney, Gall Bladder Pain, Joint Pain, Losing Weight. Reason?

Hi it all started 6 weeks ago I had a really bad sore throat and cough for 5 weeks then went to the doctor got a z pack and prednisone. The next day measles like body rash burning itchy head to toe palms and soles of feet. 2 weeks later rash is gone no sore throat then really bad gall bladder pain kidney pain whole abdominal area in pain. I drank a lot of water and lemon juice and it really helped. No I still have stomach pain. Shooting pains in arms and legs and in joints sometimes chest. Wake up with light headach behind ears.. Flem comes up in my throat for no reason. Losing weight a lot. Any idea? Thx

Hello

Thanks for writing to H.C.M.

I have gone through your query regarding your disease profile of six weeks started from sore throat and now you have problems of kidney and gall bladder.

As you said initially you develpoped sore throat for which you were given z pack and prednisone and plenty of water and juices and now your throat is ok. Your joint pains may be the after effect of viral fever as it is very common but kidney and gall bladder trouble are appears to be separate disease process.

You are now advice to consult any good physcian for tharough examination and relevent investigation to pin point the diagnosis and management accordingly.

Regards.
