A little less than 3 weeks ago I was put on a Zpak for a chest infection (possibly bronchitis), I was also taking MucinexD off and on to help prevent me from crazy coughing fits while at work, on top of that I have a case of winter allergies and was taking ZyrtecD to help with my symptoms. Prior to this I had weened off of Prednisone in mid December and was feeling pretty good. I have a mild case of Crohn's with my only symptoms being bleeding and sometimes gas or mucous. about
a week to week and half ago following me getting off of the Zpak & Mucinex I started having bleeding almost everyday again and now have started to have mucous again. My Dr had given me a pro biotic (which I have continued) to take while on the antibiotic and I didn't have a return of symptoms while ON the Zpak but now that I'm off I'm almost in full flare mode again. I'm just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and if steroids were needed to get under control again. I DO NOT want to be on prednisone again if it can be avoided. Any chance the pro biotic will help reregulate things following the antibiotic? (Haven't updated profile yet...am currently on Lialda-4 pills a day, MV, calcium+D, B complex+C, Omega complex & a pro biotic)
