        <![CDATA[ ick.


think that&#39;s what I might have.


Thought it was a 24 hour bug, vomiting/diarrhea.  No more vomiting today, but still the other end. 


Reading the symptoms, and having TT a litter 2 weeks ago who tested positive I tend to lean this way.


Will see the doc on Monday, likely have to get tested if it doesn&#39;t clear up, but read the side effects of most of the meds to treat and not too happy
about any of them.


Experience?

<br>

I&quot;m really doing well, so I&#39;m thinking it must have been a bug.

			<description><![CDATA[ OMG, Toni. I thought you were talking about giardia and dogs here.
<br>
<br>
I have had it and the thing that I remember the most is actually not the output but the sharp pains in the abdomen. I got it in India. I do not really remember
how I was treated but I took 2 antibiotics....for a very long time.
<br>
<br>
I had no big side effects from the antibiotics that I can remember.
<br>
<br>
Hope you are feeling better. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ They do a 3 day sample.... bringing to the hospital lab, so guessing it&#39;s reliable.
<br>
<br>
I will ask how reliable as well as look it up.
<br>
<br>
How were you dx?
<br>
<br>
And if you don&#39;t mind, what sort of side effects did you experience from the meds? Feel free to email info if you&#39;d rather. ]]></description>

Yeesh.

			<description><![CDATA[ Oh yeah, had it, got it tracking through a swampy area.
<br>
<br>
Feels like you have hamsters in your gut - VERY epic.
<br>
<br>
What I will say is when it looks like it is ebbing - DON&#39;T BELIEVE IT! Go slow - eating wise - for longer than you think you should.
<br>
<br>
Yes, Flagyl is the med of choice but it was worse, for me, than the illness and the illness was....memorable.
<br>
<br>
{{{ }}} Stay close to the bathroom. ]]></description>

<br>
I have never had it but knew folks out west that got it. One dude in Vegas got it from simply testing water samples...no drinking. They told me I would know I
had it if I lost 25 lbs in a week;) so yea, take it seriously Toni. ]]></description>

I&#39;ll take it more seriously, CC.

Have read that it can also run a 2 - 6 wk course and not require treatment, but I won&#39;t go that way if it is the same over the weekend. ]]></description>
