@cas924 I love Peggy Lillis Foundation. Did you know you can also get C-Diff from pill form antibiotics? Just something to be aware of. Vancomycim is like taking the hair of the dog that bit you to cure you. It's temporary without further assistance from good bacteria.

@mrsjohn101 Oh yes. I am fully aware that any anti-biotic, even a topical one, could cause C Diff to return. Some doctors told me it’s the broad-spectrum antibiotics that are the most concerning, but other docs have told me that ANY antibiotic could be problematic. I am working hard to build my microbiome back to be as healthy and diverse as possible so that hopefully, if I ever have to take antibiotics again, my gut will be healthy enough to survive without a recurrence.
