bacterial infection
"I've been taking 5x400mg flagyl/metronidazole for 7 days to treat apparently two parasites in my stomach that have been causing diahorrea for several weeks



Metallic taste in my mouth is awful - water and all liquids taste disgusting (I've been chewing sugar free gum constantly to get the taste out of my mouth)



Other side effects include a lot of stomach bloating, have actually felt depressed and am lacking in energy and my normal vigour.



the first few days, I was getting awful stomach pain and cramping, albeit that has subsided now.



I am on day 7 and still have diahorrea, albeit I understand that is a side effect.



Just a horrible drug to be on, albeit I hope it works!"
