Oddly enough I first developed anaemia after a long course of both IV and oral antibiotics for severe pneumonia. The antibiotics were given over about three months and I had Amoxil then Augmentin, then Ceftazadine, then Benzylpenicillan then Cipro, Doxycycline, Dicloxicillan and lastly metronidazole for the antibiotic induced diarrhea.

I have always assumed the pneumonia was my first symptom/sign that something was wrong but maybe it was the antibiotics causing the ensuing anaemia and neutropenia.

I will probably never know.

Regards
