Thank you for responding. I ended up going to the bathroom last night and it was little pieces and a lot of mucus. Same with right now. Not watery diahrrea. Is this normal? I tried getting an appointment with the GI in town, but they are booked out until aug 19. I booked it and started crying 😭

I think “normal” is hard to define after c-diff. If you can pay attention to how your diet and a probiotic like Align affect your stools, you can help the GI doctor make a treatment plan. From the reading I’ve done, the balance of the many different bacteria in the gut, beneficial and harmful, is wiped out by antibiotics and it takes time to restore a healthy combination.
