[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 482028, member: 11791"] Anyone else please ignore this post... might be too much information... You can actually do a water-flush. I had to do it once - couldn't even get cranberry juice. Drink water. Not large quantities at one time - don't want to get water intoxication. You need to know your own limits, and stay within them. But drink steadily... I did half a cup every 20 to 30 minutes. Kept drinking until it was coming out the other end... and then [I]kept on drinking at the same rate for another hour or so.[/I] Total pain... it was the middle of the night, we were guests... ended up not even leaving the washroom. But... after that much water going through the system, you significantly reduce the volume of bacteria even if you don't completely eliminate the problem. DO NOT REPEAT. That much water going through produces stress on your system... but for an emergency situation, it was worth it. It kept me going for a day and a half until we could get home and get to a doctor.
