Went to the ER four days ago because of an abscessed fistula. The ER doctor put me on 500 mg of both Cipro & Flagyl. The swelling in my lower labia where the fistula is located has gone down and is draining, but still very tender and sore. I started getting extremely nauseous yesterday and still am today. I threw up a few times as well. When stool
passes through my fistula or even gas it causes me extreme pain. Kind of a burning/stinging sensation. Anyway, I haven't taken either antibiotics since yesterday afternoon and I'm still feeling sick. Would it take several days for these meds to make me sick? I would think I would've felt this way from the first dose. I'm starting to think that I might need a seton drain for my fistula as well. Finally found a primary doctor, but I can't get in until September 27th! I need to get a referral for a colorectal doctor. They can't get me in any sooner either even though I explained my situation. It's so frustrating!!!
