Thanks for the reply and my heart goes out to you. I can’t imagine this for 7 months… hugs.
I hope the specialist can get you the help you need to resolve this for once and for all.
I am now on vancomycin for 30 days. Can’t believe how expensive it is. So hope it does what is supposed to do. Any how, going to try HMF Multi Strain. It seems to have the key things in it. I just don’t want this to get worse… hopefully it will get better. But one thing you have to be an advocate for yourself. As I believe this should have been identified much sooner. Unfortunately two doctors including my own were not “listening “ to me. Thank god my doctor finally did! If you have a condition such as IBS you know how your body operates. This wasn’t IBS!

That is 100% true. I’ve been on all three cdiff meds including the Difficid which is the last one they try. This is my fourth time on vanco two 10-14 day doses followed by a six week taper then the difficid now back to vanco and a 10 week taper but it’s not going well. My GI is not doing anything more so I got a referral to a bigger hospital specialist two hours away can’t see me until 3/5 but finally got the GI to refer me to infectious disease. I guess fecal transplants can’t occur until you’re deathly ill now for some reason so frustrating. 100% we have to be our own advocates and keep pushing to find the right docs and treatments. Hopefully the probiotics you found and meds do the job for you praying for good things!
