i have been back almost 2 weeks. while in ohio i got the ole sinus infection and was put on keflex for 7 days (after i had this in february and took omnicef for 2 weeks!!).

so now i have developed severe joint pain in all major points (arms, hands, shoulders, hips and knees). i can barely get up in the morning.

to give you a complete history, i thought i would try grapefruit seed extract so after being home for a couple of days, i bought some and used it for 4-5 days at 1 drop per day. it hurt my stomach, so i quit.

i don't know if it's the being off the keflex or the gse that has caused this pain.

can somebody please help? was it doing too much at one time, the antibiotic and then the gse?

i know i'm under tremendous stress with my mom and had very little sleep (2-3 or less hours) a night for 2 weeks. Now i'm physically exhausted.

i sure would appreciate any help. i'ma hurting!!

The GSE is pretty rough on me too. It's probably hard on you because you've had c.diff and other stomach problems.

GSE is very acidic.

I hope you are feeling better soon. Stress sucks!
