Colitis, Knee Surgery, Taking Vicodin, Nausea, Diarrhea
Hi. First, I have colitis . second, I had knee surgery last week and have been taking Vicodin . I stopped taking the medicine Monday after two days of nausea and not being able to keep food down. My consumption of food is at this time is water, carbs, and sprite. After eating some crackers my stomach became upset causing me to have diarrhea. The diarrhea is a neon yellow. Should I be concerned?

without medical advice stopping medicine is not advisable.This diarrhea may be due to acute gastroenteritis or due to some other cause.you better get light diet in this period.( avoid fatty spicy food). If it not a sever diarrhea , u can get some oral rehydration (with other liquid) fluid and see.if it is a sever diarrhea better to meet a doctor for further management.
