Ever since i had influenza b, my digestion has been bad. gurgling upper stomach and soft stool. this has been going on for 2 months. i thought perhap?

Gastrointestinal: If you took antibiotics this could be antibiotic gastroenteritis. Irritable bowel syndrome is more likely. Follow a bland low fat diet, avoid harsh roughage in your diet and take kaopectate or peptobismol to improve bowel function. Be aware that your stools may develop a blackish color from these medications.
