So far, it does not have the severity of a C. Difficile takeover. But yeah, unappetizing liquid at unexpected times. The timing could just barely have been more precise: Tomorrow is the day I should put on the wearable heart monitor. I am planning to call them and ask to cancel that. (Tomorrow morning, as it was too late today.) I was hoping to walk my usual route in the hills with the monitor on; as it looks now, I will not walk very far from the bathroom. While I am sure it would be interesting to have my heart and blood pressure monitored while sleeping, going to the bathroom and trying to rehydrate, that is not really what I was thinking of!<\/p>\n
On the bright side, the swelling in my face was gone already yesterday. My tooth is still lose and I suspect that its movements are irritating the wound, but there is really nothing I can do about that. I will stop taking clindamycin when I have developed serious diarrhea, as requested by the accompanying leaflet. If the diarrhea keeps getting worse, I should next consult a doctor. (Provided there isn’t a month’s wait this time? There is no clause for that in the product sheet.)<\/p>\n
So far I have eaten just yogurt and the probiotic milk drink, as I have done since the cure started. But I should probably add some cooked water and salt if this continues.<\/p>\n
Edit later in the evening: Now that the antibiotic has been out of my body for some hours, there is definitely some pressure building in my face again, although slowly. \u00a0You’d think it would not come back once it was gone. At some point the immune system should be able to deal with it: This is not some kind of new superbug, to the best of my knowledge, it was contained for several months before the surgery with no symptoms except a loose tooth!<\/p>\n
Well, at least perhaps someone will read this and take my warning to not have oral surgery unless your life is on the line.<\/p>\n
