Tummy problems :(

Tummy problems :(

Okay so I restarted my abx again on Sunday (azithromycin, and amox) today I'm having stomach cramps and diarrhea.  I really don't want to stop my meds if possible, but should I be concerned about this?  Or is this simply just side effects?   Anyone else get this on these meds?  IT's weird, cause I was on Ceftin for 3 months with absolutely NO tummy issues.  I've only been on these for a couple days:(.  

What should I do?

I've just started having major problems like this yesterday and today (on the same meds). I've been on the Amox for 3 months and on the Zithro for the past 3 weeks. I was good about taking the probiotic but have been lax over the past week and I think I'm paying the price. It's especially bad tonight even though I've taken my probiotic twice today.

I hope I can go to work tomorrow because my boss is not exactly understanding about my health issues. That just adds to my stress of course.

If I'm still bad in the morning I will call the doctor, but honestly I couldn't leave the house if I wanted to at this point... :(
