yes, I was in the hospital four times in quarantine, they came in the room wearing gowns and masks and gloves, took them off before they went out otherwise no one in or out. My daughter cleaned the whole house down with bleach which I am highly allergic to but was in the hospital when she did it. She threw away curtains, drapes,etc Then they did the fecal transplant because nothing was working, was going to try a new drug, free from the company but I had the transplant instead. $11,000 in copays and I was never the same, sick everyday

@sarasally2 I can sure relate except that I wasn't in the hospital during my 4 bouts of Cdiff in 2018. I've never gone through anything like it. I took Flagyl, Vancomycin twice and even did the pulse and taper for 6 weeks and finally Dificid worked for me. It's terribly expensive and I'm sure that's why the insurance doesn't cover it until I'd tried Vanco. My next alternative was going to be the FMT. All this from taking Clindamycin for a sinus infection. Every time I hear that someone I know is taking antibiotics, I cringe.
