Diarrhea After Antibiotics

I took a round of Keflex about 2 weeks ago for 7 days (I finished up a week ago today). Didn't have any problems while on it, but since stopping I have become lactose intolerant and have had intermittent diarrhea and just generally feel tired and yucky. I've been taking probiotics (I did while I was on the Keflex too), immodium as necessary and I just realized today the lactose was exacerbating it so I'll stop that.

Any other suggestions most welcome! I crashed ouot for about 2 1/2 hours today because I was so beat. My body has been through a lot lately- gall bladder out May 17th, huge exam the week of June 9-16 and then got an infected salivary gland. but besides resting, probiotics and avvoiding lactose, is there anything else i sshould do?

I would make sure you're taking a high-grade (live) acidilopholus (sp!!) and as often as you can. Be kind to your GI tract with well-tolerated, gentle, foods. Bananas, rice, etc. Rest, relax - enjoy the long weekend!

Hmmm...My suggestions would also be stay on the probiotics, like we talked about in the other thread, and eat basic foods...no greasy, crazy spicy stuff, really high fiber foods too. I'd keep steering clear of dairy and would avoid really acidic foods like oj too. Get rest, stay hydrated. All the basic stuff is all I can come up with ;) Hope you feel better soon friend! Make sure you DEFINITELY do some laying around and movie watching this weekend! Dr. Jen's orders :)

I like Dr. Jen's and Stronger Today's orders- they work for me.

Looks like I'm forced to rest as I got glutened. Grrrr :angry: Bought some decaf hazelnut coffee to make as a treat ( I never drink coffee but since cutting out soy- which means most chocolate- I was craving a sweet glass of iced coffee). It never even occurred to me that flavored coffee might contain gluten. Yuck!

My head hurts, my stomach hurts and I'm so tired (sorry- just wanted to whine a little since I had fairly exciting plans for today :P ).

There is a product called FLORASTOR. It is a good yeast, not a bacteria, but it is supposed to do wonders for diarrhea especially. It is sold as a probiotic. I'ts expensive. I paid $52.00 for 50 pills. Anyway, just an option.

Sorry to hear that :( Well, I wasn't glutened, but I was dairyed. Huh, that doesn't work so well :) Anywho, it explains why I have felt awful all week, and with the brain fog. Its so mind-boggling to me, but dairy is what gives me the brain fog...like clockwork. Anyway, here's to a better day!

Yeah- it's crazy. For me there is a difference between getting glutened and getting 'soyed". Gluten gives me brain fog and all that fun stuff buyt soy gives me unbelievable muscle pain. Not sure which is worse but I'm almost tempted to say soy. NEVER thought I'd say that!

Here's to ALL of us feeling better. Hugs, Beverly

      Study Estimates the Costs of Delayed Celiac Disease Diagnosis (+Video)

      I was not a well child and on my own would stop eating certain foods when a stomachache occurred. As I got older, I began more and more anemic and ended up unable to hold food down at all. Once an endoscopy occurred, doctor said I had an obstruction in my stomach but nothing said about Celiac Disease. Dr. did stomach bypass surgery, removed a 1/3 of my...

      Rectal pain

      When I have had what I think are episodes of this (I've never had a formal diagnosis for PF) it seems to be triggered by bloating caused by something I've eaten - a friend had an episode of this after eating too many apples, for me corn and rice cakes seemed to give me IBS and trigger this. I am not a medical person but it seemed like the extra pressure...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      At a family wedding in Italy last year I was drinking gluten free Peroni which was fine for me. From the Daura Damn website ... " Our guarantee less than 3ppm: each batch is analyzed and certified by the CSIC using the R5 Competitive ELISA test before hitting the market. This way, we ensure that its gluten content is always below 3ppm "

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead...

Coeliacs can suffer from bloating when they are first diagnosed due to the inability to digest food properly.  Lactose for me caused a lot of bloating and when I came off it temporarily after diagnosis it helped reduce bloating.  Iron supplements and the timing of taking them also caused discomfort and I had to experiment a bit with type and timing before my gut felt comfortable.   Maybe something to think about?   Some coeliacs suffer from constipation - again, just a thought, but perhaps if you had issues with that it might be a contributor.

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer  support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead are offering supplements for your symptoms. This has helped you but you are not able to work very much.  The Programs I have seen  online usually have 3 parts. The first is a Parasite cleanse. The 2nd is the Kidney cleanse and the  3rd is a Liver cleanse and gallbladder cleanse. You need to doall these cleanses to have your whole body functioning well. I can only reccommend the program I gave you because that is the one I used and still do. (drclark.net)  When I see a newprovider and tell I have Celiacs and they look skeptical I tell them that when I am gluttoned the reaction happens 8 or more hours later with intestinal painful cramping followed by diarrhea. Providers are willing to accept tha I probably have Celiacs and are more likely order tests such as vitamin levels. Is this what happens if you eat only a small amount of Gluten? You mentioned going to Mayors. 20 years ago many Dr.s wanted to include a celiac screening as a standard test so that more people eould diagnosed and not become disabled. It did not happen but the Federal levgislature did pass a law so that Celiacs could claim deductions for the gluten free food they bought. What were you going to ask the Mayors to do?

      Gluten free nuts

      By Clear2me · Posted

      Thank you for all the excellent information. I moved from Wyoming to California. May be its where I am located but So far none of the Costco Kirkland brand I have looked at is labeled gluten free. Same with the Sam's Members Mark. The Kirkland nuts you mention all say they are processed in a plant that processes wheat.  I am going to keep checking. Thank you. The Azure Market looks promising 😁 Take care S
