I honestly don't know if it's the antibiotics, but my symptoms definitely concur with the list given: nausea, diarrhea (oh my GOD the diarrhea), dizziness, fatigue. Of course, those are the same symptoms one gets with the flu, so who knows? It's a damned long flu, if that's what it is.

All I know is, right now I'm pretty pissed off that marijuana isn't legal. That, and the fact that I don't know anyone who can get me some of the illegal variety. :) Oh well, guess I'll just tough it out. The klonopin and ginger ale do help, at least.

Be sure and get some good probiotics when the course of antibiotics is done, or just get some good yogurt to make your innards happy again.

Yeah, I know. My wife killed all the bugs in her GI tract a few years ago, so I know the drill. Definitely a good point to make, though.

At least it's easier to get probiotics now. At the time, she had to order them from Canada if she wanted anything other than what's in standard yogurt, which isn't enough.
