Thank you for this, Mrs. D. I will put it on order. The young, earnest podiatrist who has taken me on as her special case insisted I go right out and get kefir and drink it religiously while on the clindamycin. I did have terrible stomach pain every time I took it, four times a day, but they have settled down a little. It seemed to clear up the drainage and smell within two days, but this time I am not taking any chances and will take it for the full two weeks. The original hole finally looks like it is healing, but another smaller, shallow one has opened nearby.
I do not take this stuff as seriously as I should, and I will take any excuse to avoid a doctor but she really scared me. I will be getting braces when this heals to keep me from walking on the insides of my feet.
