I'm a 43 y.o female recently prescribed Keflex for a possible urinary tract infection (500 mg, 4x daily, for 10 days). The urine culture came back negative and was told by doctor to stop the Keflex. I only took 3 days worth of antibiotic out of 10 days. Well, 2 days after stopping the medication I started experiencing watery, green diarrhea and bloating. Fast forward two weeks later...... The diarrhea is just starting to not be watery. It's more just mushy now, and in between I produce some small solid pieces (yes, tmi, I know). The bloating is starting to settle down now. I began drinking homemade Kefir again to restore some of my good gut flora. It seems to help. And one more thing, I lost my appetite too. That hasn't quite come back yet.
Best wishes.
