Today, the pharmacist warned me that my antibiotics might cause slight gastrointestinal distress. The fact that I have been on the john for the past 90 minutes drenched in sweat would lead me to believe our definitions of "slight" are a bit different. FML

Today, my doctor put me on some extra strength antibiotics for an infection. On the label it says "WARNING: may cause Diarrhea"... 'may cause' is a funny term... this is the second time I've sharted in my pants today. FML
Today, I'm a week into a prescription of extremely constipating antibiotics. I also just caught the stomach bug going around at work that causes aggressive diarrhea. The two combined mean I have a constant, slow-moving stream of thick, foul-smelling sludge coming out of me. FML
Today, I have bronchitis. A few days ago, my doc prescribed antibiotics, which are helping, but also cause a really nasty upset stomach. I tell ya, violent coughing fits and severe diarrhea do NOT go well together. FML
Today, I'm on my second day of a week of antibiotics to treat a bad urine infection. Incidentally, the pills seem to be giving me extremely loud, frequent, gut-wrenchingly painful and smelly diarrhea. Only 5 more days to go. FML
Today, I'm recovering from a urinary tract infection. The infection made me have to pee constantly. Now the antibiotics I'm taking for it are giving me the shits instead. FML
Today, I was diagnosed with a chest infection and given antibiotics to take. One of the side effects of the antibiotics is diarrhea. I haven't coughed once throughout the infection, but I sneezed just as I was ready to go out to the shops and now I need fresh underwear. FML
Today, I was prescribed two different medications. I was also informed that they will both give me diarrhea for the next two weeks. FML
Today, I found out that when they put "Take with food" on the side of antibiotics, what they really mean is "Take with food because this stuff is gonna liquefy everything in your G.I. tract, and make you have to run out of the middle of calculus for the worst diarrhea ever." FML
Today, the steroids I was prescribed for a slightly irritating sinus infection have worked, albeit at the price of making me almost shit my pants multiple times. My sinuses are now clear enough that I get the full scent of my steroid-induced diarrhea. FML
Today, I started antibiotics for a UTI. Now, along with a burning sensation whenever I pee, I also need to try not to fall asleep, put up with the headaches, nausea, and lightheadedness from the tablets, all while working two jobs and being a parent. Six days to go. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Drink more water. The reason yer ******** all over the place is cos yer cells are too dehydrated to fully absorb the antibiotic. True story.
DocBastard 38
Uh...no. You're spouting more crap than OP. Anyway, I'm not sure anyone should listen to medical advice from someone who says "yer" and "cos".

So antibiotics are absorbed by healthy cells in your body? That's news to me, I'll have to tell any future kids I may have that, they'll be able to impress all their friends with their immense database of knowledge. Don't spout fiction as fact and sound all sure of yourself 29.

But wait... why the hell are they dehydrated? Oh, because they have diarrhea, easy. Wait, then why do they have diarrhea? Because they're dehydrated? Because they have diarrhea, because they're dehydrated, because they have diarrhea, because they're dehydrated, because they have diarrhea, be- *head explodes*

Dealing with failed logic is fun. Until your head explodes.

At least you're losing weight.

Not really. He'll gain it all back again after he eats. It's kind of like going to a steam room. You lose some weight through sweating, but you gain it all back once you have something to drink.
