Thank you for tagging others. It has been a very long road over a year of issues including three bouts of diverticulitis with a perforated colon and infection and a week long hospital stay last July on heavy meds resulting in more than 8 mos of cdiff. Alp of the cdiff meds and vanco four times this time on a taper dose and maintenance for four months. Still experiencing abdominal pain and abnormal stools but the extended vanco seems to be keeping cdiff at bay but IBS and other issues with no confidence the cdiff will stay gone if I go off meds. Dietary limitations as everything triggers worse stools and pain. Praying the rebyota helps!

@mavans10 - I certainly hope the Rebyota helps you as well! Sorry you've had such a long journey!
Thank you for the good wishes. My Cdiff is staying at bay so far, thankfully!
As far as my bm's they're kinda all over the place . Shortly after receiving the Rebyota the mostly normalized for a bit. Then they got to the point they were very soft/mushy. At times they were no bigger around than a pencil, but very long. Sorry to be so descriptive.
One thing I forgot , I did have some vomiting , probably four times since receiving the Rebyota (Almost 11 months ago).
Some of this probably my fault as I haven't kept up a very good diet, to be honest.
I do wish you the very best! Keep us updates as I'll be curious how things turn out.
