I have gas but not really more than before cdiff. Not much bloating, unless I eat a lot at one sitting. Yet my intake is way down, but yesterday started to slowly increase it because I’m losing weight. Total loss 24 lbs since October when this started, 14lbs of which were lost in last five weeks. Maybe I’ll run into more gas and bloating as I increase intake.

I’ll be interested to know what your doc says in couple weeks. Does s/he gauge your recovery on the type of stool, i.e, has you keep track, or is s/he interested in other symptoms? For me that’s the only guage I have and I fear I rely on it too heavily. I just want a doc to tell me specifically what any importance the output has in this recovery and what specifically I should be looking for. I cannot get specific answer. Last I asked, I was told by gastro the three day rule does not mean anything to him specifically about cdiff, because he and his colleagues have IBS patients who don’t have cdiff but who have 8-10 watery diarrhea bouts per day. Well that really doesn’t help other than to say if i get to that stage it still may or may not be cdiff! Frustrating
