Thanks for sharing your insights, @virgo1952. It is so helpful to hear from others who’ve been there.

I remember asking similar questions of others. Joined the Digestive Health group too, when I was diagnosed with c-diff. That was helpful also. It’s very confusing and scary for many reasons. The medical world has changed. Better care in many ways, but I think information is limited and/or can be censored. Fear of legal responsibility. You have to be informed. Ask questions. Be ready to “rock” the boat if necessary. sasha
