Digestive Troubles, help?I got my wisdom teeth out at the beginning of the year and I was given Amoxacillan to take to prevent infections. The Amoxacillan gave me diarrhea a lot, maybe 10 times a day so I stopped taking it about 5 days after my operation. To this day, I still have diarrhea two or three times a day and seem to constantly have gas pains unless I'm laying down. Occasionally there is blood in my diarrhea but I read that it was just because I'm going so often and the skin is raw so it bleeds. This week my anus itself has been pretty sore and I'm suspecting hemorrhoids. I also read somewhere that diarrhea caused by Amoxacillan can also last up to two months so maybe there is nothing wrong with me. I am pretty scared about all of this though, so I just want some input from other people.
PS: My stool is very foul smelling, moreso than usual. I'm not sure if that is important or not.

The candida (natural bacteria in your gut) has gotten a little out of control. Antibiotics make it becomes a beast. You'll need to eat a diet without yeast and sugar and I recommend an awesome product that worked for me called Symbion.. Good Luck!

Hi, it is time for probiotics and yogurt. Lots and lots of yogurt. It sounds like the amox messed with your gut flora, so you will need to get it back into balance. Go to the pharmacy counter and ask the pharmacist for the probiotics there and then get some stonyfield something really good like that to eat.
Also, have you told your doctor about this? They may want to do a C Diff test...
Hope this helps!
