hello everyone i have left sided uc and i have been in remission for about
2 years now just by taking Lialda 4x a day, probiotics 80 billion cfu natures way, and vit d 1000 iu's. about
a week ago i had a upper respitory infection and was given a z pack and prometizone cough syrup(sorry for spelling) i am having terrible terrible espisodes of diarreaha after taking the z pack. yesterday i had to actually go to the hospital because of dehydration and so much bloody d. i was given about
2 iv bags and some potassium. has anyone had so much difficulty with these anitbiotics before. i have had bad flare ups before and i was on 60 mg of pred and imuran 175 mgs for about
a year straight, i dealt well with both meds and i eventually came into a remission and just had to use lialda as a maintenence. any feedback would b appreciated. i was also given flagyl upon being discharged from the hospital yesterday with a possible c diff infection but i wont get my stool sample back for 2 days.
