I agree re stress not being good, especially with this disease. I think a moderator (Roy?) posted an article (I have read so many threads I can’t tell you whether it was recent or not) on the connection between gut and brain. I am trying to find it to read it, but I suspect it’s consistent with what I’m being told now, which is stress is not just manifested in loose stools ( which we’ve all probably experienced pre cdiff), but also in negatively affecting the gut microbiome, allowing bad bacteria to grow. Whereas the opposite (no stress, even euphoria) has the opposite effect. Don’t know if science supports it, I’m not a half full guy, so this going to take some hard work on my part.
