Diarrhea After Antibiotics

OSCE Voice Station

Nancy is a 69-year-old female presenting with several days of frequent watery diarrhea and abdominal cramping after antibiotics. I'm 69 and for the past four days I've had watery diarrhea, sometimes up to ten times a day, with crampy pain low in my belly and a low-grade fever. It started a few days after I finished a week of clindamycin that my dentist gave me for a tooth infection. I haven't seen any blood. Your task is to take a focused history from this patient.
