I am so mad! My boyfriend and I had sex for the first time and the next morning I had Diarria every day for the next 1 1/2 years. I was given every test available minus a pap smear. My medicare/medicaid only pays for this procedure every two years. The doctors never found out what was wrong with me. But because I was despreate to end the Diarria I started to drink vingar and my Diarria went away. I personally think I had some type of worm that was not pick up upon (eggs too). I gained 50 pounds and I would avoid eating. Now, I have an adnormal pap and I am Mad!

Are some people serious this f-in stupid? #1. Having sex for the first time could not result in this symptom-unless you have anal. #2 the lasting effects would NOT exist for a year @ a half-think you’re exaggerating a bit, or it could be some underlying problem that maybe you didn’t pay enough attention to before hand. #3 If it went on for this long you would prob. be dead at this point (which people as ignorant as you should NEVER pro-create). Having diarrhea for that long would result in dehydration, NOT 50lbs weight gain, & eventually death if that severe. #4. Don’t try to blaime the weight gain on something other than slothlyness…if that’s actually a word-get off your arse and do something about it. We’re all responsible for ourselves-& weight gain is NOT a damn disease. It’s a choice, a life style. (Unless you have a thyroid problem, but I doubt that.) #5. If you’re on medicaid or medicare you’re either really old-& haven’t had sex for the 1st time, or really handicapped; & refer back to top “you should never pro-create” if you are this helpless: or you’ve had children before and can’t provide for them. EITHER way, if I’m way-off or some what close to profiling you, you should take some responsibility for your actions. It may not just be the “boyfriend’ but your choice in men. GO TO A DOCTOR-not just one, and get several opinions for your case!!! Hello! We live in AMERICA not some 3rd world, ignorant country! And stop looking for other people to answer your deeper issues.
