However, towards the end of the week I started having some urethral irritation again and fairly bad joint pain. I was having some stomach irritation
and loose stool,
and after consuming some lactose
and fructose heavy food at a conference, my bloating returned and my IBS was worse than it was prior to the antibiotics. I then took a course of Cipro, 100 mg twice daily for a week. I also took Xifaxan simultaneously for the IBS 500 mg 3 times daily for 10 days.
