    Coccidiosis relapse?

    Thank you! I really appreciate that. I hadn't heard anything about Corid causing diarrhea. It is very watery, like a normal poop+a bunch of water. How long would it last? This is day 4 since I stopped Corid.

    Possible salpingitis. Practical advice--e. Coli risk for humans?
