Ugh, amoxicillan! Sorry you're having to go through this--but I hope your infection has cleared up.

Are you taking a probiotic? Also, have you gone back on the What to Eat When You Can't Eat Anything or BTC diet? I would probably stick to that for now and as needed during the trip. I would also take Imodium. Because you're usually C, you could try just taking 1 Imodium caplet in the morning and seeing how that helps. Some people have been mentioning Gatorade and Pedialyte for D, to make sure you don't get too dehydrated and to restore electrolytes you may be losing.

For the cramping, you probably want to stock up on peppermint tea and those heat patches that stick to your underclothes (these REALLY help me).

Anyway, I hope a Cer who has swung to the D side can respond. I wouldn't want you to go from one extreme to the other!

HTH!
