<s>[INST] Hi doctor. Im 27 year old male. I was on unprescribed anti biotics ( augmentin) for like 3 days and later on I started using amoxycilin and penicillin for no just cause. Since then I have been feeling nausea, diarrhea, sore throat, muscle and joint pain, and low grade fever. Though I had 2 different unprotected sex contacts last 2 weeks. I have been so bothered and i have been wondering if its the anti biotics side effect or viral symptoms. Moreover , I stopped taking the anti biotics 5 days ago and Ive been taking paracetamol and vitamin c; since then the symptoms Is relieving me bit by bit. Help!! Thanks. [/INST] Hi I did review your concern. I would advise you to get your stool examined if the symptoms of diarrhea persist. Amos can cause mild diarrhea as well as it can precipitate C.diff infection in the gut. I Would more likely suspect a viral pro Chat Doctor. Diff toxin assay and lactoferrin would be best so that we do not miss out on anything. Wait for 2 days, and then you can proceed with this test if symptoms persist, hope the advice helps you out. Wish you a very healthy life ahead. </s>
