Hi everyone.
So for some reason, whether it’s dental or I end up having some sort of an infection like an ear infection or something, I’ve been having to go on antibiotics every couple of years for the past 4 years or so. It so frustrating because every time I tell my primary doctor that obviously because I have UC I would prefer to try anything else and not have to take antibiotics because they give me a flare up every single time! And I feel lucky for the most part because my condition isn’t that bad. I’m in remission on Remicade but every time I take even the smallest dose of antibiotics, even if it’s just for a couple weeks, it’ll put me in a full blown flare up. My primary doctor always says that most people have issues with antibiotics and to just take probiotics with it. I’ve tried it in the past. Did research and bought the very best probiotics and they didn’t help at all.
Anybody else experience this with antibiotics or feel crazy when you have to see your primary sometimes?
