Vaccine and Diarrhea

When I was smaller I took some OTC cough syrup that purposely gave you diarrhea to cure the cold my family had. It worked and everyone who took it was no longer sick.

A couple weeks ago I was vaccinated with 3 vaccines and then I took a extreme HARDCORE laxative (4 days later after my vaccination) that gave me diarrhea 7 times and which lasted for 7 hours and now I'm wondering if I flushed the dead virus before I was immunized to meningitis, hepatitis A , tdap.

Well, I think a vaccine has nothing to do with what goes out if the digestive system, it isn't like you swallowed the vaccine.  It's in the bloodstream and creates antibodies there.  But as I said, if you're worried, check with the doctor's office.

Take care.

No one has ever suggested me as an anorexic.
My Note sounds defensive because i knew when people hear laxative they (sometimes) think anorexic.

Ask your doctor if the laxative would have any effect.  I doubt it.  

I see your defense about anorexia -- did anyone on here suggest you are anorexic?
