Hello, searching for help.
About 3 weeks ago we ate at chili's at the DFW airport. 3 days after that i started getting really weird bowel movements. Looked like dirt or something weird. I freaked out, went to the Doctor. He told me I had C-diff because i was on a lot of antibiotics. Put me on something for C-diff but then the test came back negative.
Then the bowel movements changed to red, Like i was giving birth to hot molten lava. God help me. My A$$ burned so bad i thought i was going to cry.
Went to my favorite doctor Gastro and he ran a rapid test on me where i gave a tiny sample in a tube. Tested positive for E-coli.
He started me on Cipro, that didn't help. Now he switched me to XIFAXAN 550 x 3 @ $1,750.00!
Im on day 3. But i still only notice mild improvement. I don't have any other symptoms except after i eat, I get really bad cramps, Massive stomach attacks, and then its like nothing happened.
I don't have fever, i don't think I'm dehydrated, Im not throwing up. Just MASSIVE stomach attacks.
Can anyone offer any advice??
