What kind of damages can E. Coli do to your body? |
I went to the Dominican for my honeymoon and I started getting bad diarrhea and I thought it was the change of food and when I came back home, I still had it but I have a sensitive digestive track so I thought I was adjusting back to american food. Well I started to get severe cramping and I started passing out so I took myself to the hospital and they tested me and found E. Coli - most likely from the food or water down there and put me on IV for dehydration. They put me on an antibiotic called Cipro and said it should clear it up. I've been on it about 6 days and I still have the horrible diarrhea. My mother told me last night that her friend had E Coli and her system has never been the same since and she had it 10 years ago! I'm guessing I had the E Coli for a little over 2 weeks so do you think I'll have any lasting damages? and what will they be? If diarrhea is your only continuing symptom, then the antibiotic has likely killed the Ecoli, but the diarrhea continues because the antibiotic has also wiped out your normal bacteria which helps you digest food. Continue to take all of the antibiotic as ordered, even if you feel better, not taking all of it can result in the the organism surviving and coming back resistant to the antibiotic from then on. You can ease the symptoms of diarrhea by eating yogurt. it is in deed a deadly deases but at least you are now treated hopefull it has not done much damage. |
