Does bacterial vaginosis make anyone feel nauseous or have diarrhea?
I thought I had a bladder infection so I went to the doctor and got on some pills that made me feel sick to my stomach and have diarrhea, then I realized it wasn’t a bladder infection at all, it was bacterial vaginosis according to my Gynecologist. So now I’ve been off the bladder infection meds for two days, and have a new gel like vaginal medicine that I’m going to start tonight… but earlier today I still had some diarrhea and upset stomach symptoms? Why is this? Help please.

Why the bladder infection thing?
Your condition is simply treated by anti-biotics..is this what U mean by treatment for the "bladder Infection"
Some anti-biotics do cause diarrhea and whilst this is not so nice..its only temporary.
However, even the diarrhea may play an important role in ridding the body of the infection.
Your infection "Bacterial Vaginosis" is NOT life threatening..is NOT dangerous, in ANY way.
It may cause a foul smelling discharge, but thats all. And thats where the antibiotics can clear it all up. IF U have a difficulty in any antibiotic, ask the doctor to prescribe another type.
IF the stomach thing persists, try taking Enos fruit salts..
