I'm not sure how risky it is after two weeks. In my experience, the bleeding finally stopped after I spent two days at the infectious disease ward getting eight IV bags. I started my antibiotics on Monday and ended up getting my period right then—the cramps, the diarrhea, the bloating, the back pain, and that overwhelming weakness were just brutal. I honestly thought I wasn't going to make it. By Sunday, which was about six or seven days in, I headed over to the clinic. It’s probably best if you just go there.

I went through something similar when I was taking antibiotics for a sinus infection. After about a week, I ended up in the ER because of antibiotic-related poisoning. In some cases, those meds can trigger an overgrowth of *C. diff* or something like that; normally, that bacteria just lives quietly in your gut, but it can multiply so rapidly that it basically poisons you.
