    Hi. I replied to your other post mosnippy and yes it's perfectly normal. Remember you've had major surgery so listen to your body and just do a little bit at a timeĀ

      Sometimes the first course of antibiotics doesn't always clear an infection. Definitely see your doctor because if you've had diarrhoea the most recent doses will not have been absorbed.
