When they did my EGD last week they found some antibioties in my stomach that shouldn't be there so for the next 2 weeks I get to take 2 high powered antibiotics. I was told that I could eat with one of them the tetrycycline even though the bottle says not to because my stomach is all messed up. I am to take it on a full stomach but not take both antibiotics at the same time. Soooooooooooo that means I am eating like 4xs a day since I have 2 doses of each med.

Any solutions for the upset tummy? It seems that my stomach likes carbs. So all day I've been snacking on saltines and just had a bowl of ramen noodles but now its upset again.

(((((((((((( jbug )))))))))))) So sorry your tum is upset.

Maybe a little bit of chicken...white meat that is baked or broiled with no spices and maybe some white rice would be bland enough not to upset and still fill you up when you need to take your meds? I think the ramen noodles have too much salt and other junk in them that might hurt the tum right now?

I do hope you are feeling better soon!

I figured out the reason behind my upset tummy. On Monday I had drank 2 boxes of this water additive stuff that had fiber in it and taken fiber capsules so you can guess what happened well now the opposite effect is happening. So tomorrow I'm going to go to the store and get some more of the water additive and some laxatives and hopefully my tummy ache should go away. I had this revelation this morning. I've been drinking water with Benefiber in it but it hasn't done anything but since I know this other stuff works I'm gonna do that.
