I had to rush home from work on 1st Oct with an upset stomach (no vomiting or nausea). This carried on for the subsequent days, going a few times during the day and waking at nights with abdominal pain and passing lots of mucus (sorry for being so graphic!)
it got to the point last Saturday where I was so dehydrated I went to out of hours and they admitted me for a few days. Stool samples all returned negative - was worried re c diff! Since being home it’s lessened a lot to just going either at night, during the night or first thing in the morning so at most once or twice a day.
The irony was that I had recently been at the dr re constipation from my lansoprazole and have switched to ranitidine now (although this wasn’t the cause of the diarrhoea as I hadn’t got a chance to collect the medication before this all started) The drs have written gastroenteritis on my sick line. I’ve just never had it before without vomiting and not for such a long period of time..
Has anyone experienced anything similar??
