I was diagnosed with an intestinal tract infection 3 weeks ago and given antibiotics for 5 days to clear it up. Before taking the antibiotics my infection caused diarrhea 10-20x per day for 21 days and vomitting.
Everything is cleared up now except for one small problem. I am overcome with an intense, short-lived nausea 1-2 times daily. It is the worst nausea I have ever experienced and my mouth becomes to salivate uncontrollably. I am a college student and I have had to run out of the classroom/lecture several times now, which can be a little embarrassing.
The strangest thing is that I always run to the bathroom and sit next to the toilet and hope that SOMETHING will come out, but nothing ever does...except for ALOT of saliva...and I gag the entire time. I have tried to identify whether it is associated with the time that I eat. I've noticed that it only happens anywhere from 20 minutes to 3 hours following eating.
Ever heard of this before? Any advice?

I stopped taking the antibiotics 10 days ago, so they can't be the cause of the nausea.
Also, for the record, I am not pregnant.

Its the antibiotics. Ask your doctor for a lighter pill maybe they are to strong for you.

contractions with lower back pain could be that your baby's head is facing forwards and his/her head is pressing on your lower back bones as you contract, get on your hands and knees and do some pelvic tilts, or get in water ( a pool or something). You could be having alot of predominal labor, which sucks , but your body is just gearing up. Your Cervix could be posterior or anterior , not centered. The bowel movements are normal signs of your body getting ready for labor. Your body releases hormones that 'clean you out". My suggestion for the swelling is , drink water with lemon in it. Or make parsley tea. Take parsley boil it drain the water over ice and drink 1 cup a day. It is a diuretic so make sure you drink tons of water too,but it will help with swelling. Please call your doc and make sure these suggestions are ok to try.. Hope this helps! tonya

Usually happens to me when my wife says her mother is coming to spend Christmas with us!
