Diarrhea

Complete exhaustion, feeling faint. I've had diarrhea a week and one day.  I've visited the doctor, who game me Lotomil and Fagyl,  and had me buy Align, but nothing is working.  I can barely walk from room to room without feeling out of breath.....any suggestions on something to replenish my energy.  Ive even tried Gatorade and I hate that stuff.

I suppose my next move is the emergency room.

 Depending on what type of revision you had done, you may have a vitamin and mineral deficiency which is causing your symptoms.   Did you have a short channel ERNY?   A few others who had this revision reported similar issues.

Get tested for c. diff. If it's that, then the flagyl should help, although it takes awhile. Lomotil and other anti-diarrheals aren't good to take if you have c. diff.

Drink water, take potassium as well as your vitamins. I think the emergency room might be necessary, better safe than sorry.
