was in mexico about 2 months ago, and got really sick down there.i got back and my stool had muscus and never were solid. i had 2 stool test done. and about every blood test to look for an infection. i recently got cipro and started taking that for 10 days, i stopped about day 5 because i went on vacation again, i got back and fell like total crap again. so i told my doc. to order more cipro. it has recently came back again so the Gastrologist perscribed me with xifaxan. its the 3rd day im on the anitbiotics and im pooping only diarrhea and muscus, i wake up with stomach craps and have to use the bathroom untill i receive all the stool completly out of my belly.
PLEASE Help
You need to go back to the doctor on this one. After the 3rd on antibiotics you should see a reasonable difference in your stool. You may have caught something in Mexico and that will probably need a more rigorious treatment. But then again you may have caught something before you left that didn't seem until you got back. It does happen.
I would give it a couple more days on the antibiotics to see whether they indeed are working. Whether not, go back to the physician or go to the emergency room. The doctor can only do so much in their office, the emergency room has a lot more to use at their disposal for them to figure out a diagnosis.
