I was hoping you could update your condition. I've had similar symptoms but for different reasons. I was exposed to toxic chaetomium globosum mold that landlord "remefiated" with undiluted bleach that led to chemical burns in my throat right after two months of strong Antibiotics and steroid shot. I was also approached by a recovering meth addict who openly admitted that they had taken part of making meth in my master jacuuzi bathtub with previous tenants. So who knows exactly what all toxins affected my health resulting in similar symptoms as you. For two months life has been a.nightmare for me also and i only get sicker. Local drs. are not only clueless as to whats wrong with me ir how to treat me, but they are very condescending and flat out rude. I also saw a chiropractor went in with a headache and was assured that would be gone after the snap crackle n pop. Total opposite i left with a full blown migraine that made my stomach turn and too dizzy to drive. But all the personal experience stories I've read about flagl have all had bad reactions some really severe and many were allergic to it. Im sorry you had to stop breastfeeding, but you seemingly made the right choice. When you stopped pumping however that probably led to a build up causing you to get worse. The pumping was an outlet for infection or toxins to evacuate. Like many people with c diff take flagyl with bad reactions. And if you know about c diff, then you know it is constant diahrea. One patient was taking anti-diahreal pills which only complicated matters by keeping the toxins in rather than letting the diahrea act as an outlet to evacuate. Thats what makes me think that.stopping the pump made you feel worse. This is merely speculation as I'm not in the medical field, but I've had to be my own advocate for my mystery illness that has led me to do relentless research. Im hoping to hear back from you with good news of improved health. I empathize with living a nightmare and just wanting to get my babies Momma back to restored health. Wishing you well!
