Hiya on the 21st of may I to thought that I had to have a colostomy bag and that the surgeon could do nothing else
But miracles can happen and he managed to do it laparascopicaly I had a flare up a couple of weeks later but if you really listen to his wise words you can hopefully make a difference to your life.
You will be much better in five weeks. Take the medication. A probiotic will help. Go to pharmacy and ask what is best. Antibiotics cause diarrhea and a probiotic will help put good bacteria back in. I've been in the hospital and on those antibiotics and they do make you feel sick. I haven't had an abscess but don't think the worse. I'm sure the medication will work. 🙏😊
Hello, Yes I can help ypu . I had an abcess that exploded, body untouchable, admitted to hospital immediately. You are not in such a dire situation, as you ars still walking about. ,but it needs doing sooner or later, If the abcess bursts,there is a danger of the infection spreading. However if you are put on a drip,with antibiotics,no food by the way,, Even though mine had burst, the infection was contaned, and " murdered " .That wa 2 years ago. I started taking a probiotic capsule twice a day, they kill off the bad bacteria I have not had a flare or a tweak since. you really need it sorted before you go away,
Sorry ,,,, mis print (I'm good at that ) should not have said ars Ha HA. The probiotic you NEED is Acidophilus with Pectin 3 billion .purchased from H&B ,,, magic !!!!!
