Suggest Treatment For Recurring Diarrhea,low Grade Fever And Cold

cool
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the query,
U understand how distressing this could be. But I do believe there is much than be done. Simple measures could help.
I suggest you maintain the 0.05mg of Xanax you are taking for a week or two, then you can take same dose once every two days.
It is important to check if you changed your diet. New foods could lead to intolerance and can cause diarrheoa. It is not very likely this could be a viral infection at this point in time.
I suggest stress management for now, a bit of exercise, check your diet and just think positive. Sharing and being with loved ones could.
Getting a stool exam and some blood tests if this persists would be useful.
I think its too early to bother this much.
Regards as I wish you the best of health..

Observe symptoms carefully, antibiotic related at times
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the update,
It might be really interesting to check the antibiotics you were prescribed. Some of them do have as side effect diarrhea. However, this diarrhea rarely goes over a week after the antibiotics are stopped. It would be appropriate in my opinion to check the antibiotics. Penicillin family antibiotics like Amoxicillin - Clavulinic acid generally have this as side effect. This special kind of diarrhea is called pseudomembranoeus colitis.
I think this should fade out gradually. In case this persists, you might have to see a doctor for a proper review.
Absence of alarm signs like severe pain, fever, blood in stool are however reassuring. However, watching carefully for persistence, aggravation or onset of new symptoms remains important.
Kind regards as I wish you the best of health.
