I have c diff

I have had cdiff off and on for a few months, some good days, some bad days. I finished a second round of a second antibiotic 2 weeks ago, am on visbiome and for the most part am able to expand my diet to include more things, tolerating them well, staying in my system longer and most days feel less weak. Still no fried food or acidic foods. ( starting coffee some mornings again). My BMs are still not normal but are more formed than they were. My question is, I think my gastroenterologist would approve me to do the spore therapy if I really needed it but is it best to avoid it? Or would it build my biome even stronger to fight the bad bacteria? Or should I not do it as the recovery seems to be slow but improving? Thank you for any advice!

@chrismkc i’ve been suffering from CDF after effects for nine years now. It seems like the C-dif ate my stomach apart. I am in so much pain daily that my doctor put me on pain medication, thankfully. I had to have a fecal transplant because I could not stop the diarrhea after so many antibiotics. The transplant did work for me. The antibiotic I got the sea gift from was Augmentin. I would tell people to never take that antibiotic. I know several people that have got the CDF from that antibiotic that I antibiotics should be taken off the market. It is in my doctor reports that I can never take antibiotics again because if I did, I would probably get the CDF back. The reason I got the CDF was from taking too many antibiotics for UTIs if I had known then that you could get CDF from that I would’ve never taken the antibiotics. I had never heard of CDF until I got it. I think doctors should inform people about it before they continually give patients antibiotics.
