Stomach, intestines and throat discomfor
Since i drank 3 antibiotics per day for about 2 weeks for a supposed teeth infection, I started having problems with my stomach, intestines and throat. I must say I even had an allergic reactions to the antibiotics. I get cramps and pain in stomach and intestines, burning sensations in all three, gases, difficulty swallowing, bloating sometimes.
I've never before had problems with these or acid reflux or anything.

this is probably due to gastritis or because the antibiotic had an effect on your stomach lining. you should try have antacids for now and eat food with lots of fibre and less spicy food. if the symptoms persists please consult a gastroenterologist and get yourself tested. drink plenty of water and inculde more fruits in ur diet
