Allforelk Report post Posted August 16, 2016 Thoughts are with you. I nursed my mom back from a similar bought with the same thing. IV antibiotics at ER and a week later an ambulance ride resulting in emergency surgery. Please don't second guess symptoms if they pop up. I'm naming my next cocktail Bob! Feel better.

tjhunt2 Report post Posted August 16, 2016 Glad to hear you are back on the mend. I have the same thing and it flairs up once in a while and I always have to go with the anti-biotics for a good week. I was told beer doesn't affect taking the anti-biotics so I took mine with a good dose of beer. I feel your pain. TJ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
