Thank-you. I Have Been Taking Large Doses Of Flucloxacillin And

Thank-you. I have been taking large doses of Flucloxacillin and Rifampicin (4,000 mg each b/d) following MRSA - Septic Arthritis in shoulder in April. I have had developing symptoms of blurred vision and now noticeably extreme blurring in far-sight vision. Driving etc would be very dangerous.

Can either of these drugs be contributing please?

I have also had a very intensive course of rTMS over the summer. This is non-invasive and not known for side effects, but I wondered if it may have resulted in the relaxing of the focal muscles, for example, which would affect vision?

And of course, the interaction of the high-dose antibiotics plus rTMS?

Thank-you very much for your help.
