ugh - diarheah

[crazybeautiful]

Oh my god. I'm in so much pain, I'm laying down, then I have to run for fear of going to the bathroom, then I can't. Just a little.


It's this stupid wisdom teeth thing. It's messed up all my bowels.


Any ideas what I can do???


EDITED, turns out the pains were caused by non other than diarheah. Oh god. What is happening? first I can't...then I get it? What if this is a bug? I'm on penicillen, but have been for a week, and I did just start eating solid foods in the last few days. Could that be it? Ugh, my stomac hurts now. ugh. UGHEdited by: crazybeautiful

Um....to be honest, I don't think it is from the teeth removal itself, but it may be from the stuff they use so you won't feel it. Did they have you take things to make you sleep? These can cause side effects (I'm pretty sure), but they are usually short lived. Um....I'm not saying that it isn't a bug, asit could be. But just because you have diarrhea does not mean you are going to vomit, if that's what you are afraid of. Also, since you have just started eating solid foods in the last few days, it could be caused by lack of nutrients found in some solid foods. This can do things to your stools.There has been times when I have had diarrhea for unknown reasons and I was fine the next day. You'll probably be fine.I hope you get better soon!

If you go a little while with not eating much and then you eat, your belly gets a bit warped cos it hasn't had real food to digest and suddenly now it does and that can give you diarreah, when you have also just had your teeth out and you are on penicillin, i'm not suprised you have Diarreah to be honest.


I hope you feel better soon, but don't automatically assume you will get ill, it's just your stomach re-adjusting.Edited by: hippychick

Yah, Hippy, That's what I'm thinking!!


Youngemet, I meant that the whole wisdom teeth removal experience is making me messed up! Not that the removal made my stomac all wonky.

I hope you are feeling better soon. I hate the pain from diarrhea[img]smileys/smilies_11.gif[/img]Especially when you aren't sure how soon you are going to have to go again.
I would say that your stomachis reacting to the food, because you have been denying it. The penicillin doesn't always help the situation either.
Make sure to drink lots and get your electralytes replaced. Even if you drink Gatorade or Power ade it will help out. It will help ease the trots and you won't get any light headedness. Keep the food intake up as well your body needs it to heal.
BIG HUGS

Maybe you should try taking some Immodium? I always get diahriah when I take an antibiotic, and usually not until I've almost finished the prescription. My doctor said that sometimes that can happen because even though you've been taking it for a while, you body stores it up so it can take a few days to cause the diahriah. And sometime, it can just happen. I'm sure you're not sick, don't worry. I hope you feel better soon!

Most likely it's the antibiotics. My dad had the scoots the past few days cuz he was on penicillin for having a bad tooth! The way that they tell you to make it go away is to eat some yogurt. That'll help get the 'good' bacteria back into the intestines! Probably why you haven't gotten the poops til now because you've been eating foods that prevent it in the first place until recently!

When I had my wisdom teeth removed I was on antibiotics and they caused me to be unable to go.....very very painful, never want to do that again....maybe that was your pain

[crazybeautiful]

Hmm, well I am almost done my meds, only a couple more days left. Hopefully I never have that happen again, especially at work. UGH.


I'm just drinking lots of water, eating toast, ect.

We need a certain amount of good bacteria for our guts etc to work well. when you take anribiotics the good bacteria gets killed. Now don't everyone panic or think you will get sick because you wont, but you might get a few bowel problems for a few days while your gut etc sorts itself out.

ICK! well better than v* i gues!!!
