You have been prescribed a whole lot of meds.... I hope you are taking a probiotic supplement to help restore some healthy bacteria in your intestine that has undoubtedly been killed off by the meds. It is not unusual for people to have delayed intestinal reactions from taking antibiotics. So the sooner you start supplementing the better and it's also wise to stay on the probiotic for at least a month or more afterwards.

Let us know how your post op appt goes...

I will definitely let you know. Thank you. I haven't been prescribed probiotics. Can I buy them without a prescription and if so, how much are they? Even if they're prescribed, I just recently lost my health insurance and dint have a lot of money. I've heard of c. diff and was kinda concerned about it after so many antibiotics. I've been having some stomach upset but not severe or worsening. Do you think I should be concerned?
