as today i went to the Dr he was a internal medicine one and I guess that I was just fighting a flu. He said it nothing to worry about. I had a fever of I guess 99 degrees when they took my temperature. The Dr said that I didn't have any mouth sore I guess and that they were nothing or he wasn't able to see them. he also says that I have IBS and that he gave me some IBS medicine to help me out with the diarrhea. I consider myself a hypochondriac I guess but it sorta feels something is still wrong. God willing once I wake up in the Morning everything will be ok! if any of you have any input let me know thanks for everything!!

Thank you for your comment! I have a DR appt today and god willing he will give me something I don't think that I'm fighting a viral infection since its been here for roughly 2 months I guess. I've been drinking a good amount of fluids but it usually comes once I eat a good meal I guess I would say. it sorta seems though my head is hot but who knows what means I guess.

If  I'm correct the Dr probably wont give me an antibiotic since I'm fighting a viral infection perse that's what 2 Dr told me. God willing everything will be Ok thanks again!

first of all, your diarrhea has to be treated becz your ulcers are the signs of your poor bowels and lot of heat produced in your body.

Eat banana your diet. take atleast 2 daily. Avoid taking any kind of bread as it increased load on your stomach. take only fruits and juices with a pinch of salt to avoid dehydration. Consult your doctor for a good antibiotic to enhance your immunity.

For your ulcers, buy a clotrimazole oral paint. Rinse your mouth with plain water and then apply this paint drops on your ulcers and relax for 5-10 mins, it will give you immediate relief. You can repeat this 3-4 times for better results & I assure your ulcers will be cured in 2 days. Good Health.

For mouth sores I use warm salt water several times a day (swish in mouth and spit out) and if that does not help I use Colgate Colgate Peroxyl Antiseptic Oral Cleanser Rinse.

For the diarrhea is could be and imbalance of bacteria band probiotics can help restore balance. I use a probiotic supplement (you can get a liquid form from your local health food store in the refrigerated section of supplements) that contain at least 10-50 billion good bacteria. You can add this to yogurt or applesauce. I use three times daily while diarrhea is present and then once a day to keep my gut healthy.

Hope this helps! God bless and sending smiles your way! :)
