Hi,

Recently I got severely affected by bacterial infection which stirred high fever, sore throat and extreme fatigue, I need to visit the emergency to recover and I was prescribed anti-biotics.

Ever since I started taking anti biotics, my bowel movement is extremely regular, no pain, no pushing etc.., etc.,
I had similar experience once I suffered food- poisoning that followed dierrhea. By that time also Doctor prescribed some medication ( I did not even note that) and after taking that, I was very regular for some time.

I suspect the anti-biotics also killed the bad bacterias that usually cause me constipation ( I used to eat lot of restaurant food, lot of bad stuff I agree), even if I do not bounce back to eating the restaurant food often, I am pretty much sure I am likely to run into the old constipation problem. Even if I do not eat bad food for couple days, still my stomach never digests well.

How could I avoid that ?

Can I explain this to Doctor and ask him to recommend anti-biotics to blow those constipation causing bacterias once in six months.

I think I can get good bacterias by consuming yogurt, why to care flushing the bad bacterias then.

Thanks for the patience, it just sounds a puzzle to me but I am trying address my long term problem.


Thanks.
