Hi @celderki07,

You'll see that I moved your last post to your previous discussion that you started and adjusted the title to include Cdiff since we started talking about that as well. I did this because I want the members to be ale to see your whole story without having to search for different conversations.
There are many people on Connect that have dealt with Cdiff and I would like to introduce you to them so you can connect and possible learn about what they dealt with as well
@ngorman25, @losthope, @pines, @lacy2, @mhi, @dilly69, @cece55 and @danab have all experienced Cdiff.

When your primary detected the toxin, did they suggest that you treat it or just watch for symptoms?

So sorry you are dealing with Cdiff. In my case when they detected the toxin they started me on Vancomycin. And had a relapse and another round of antibiotic. My body didn’t feel right and felt that c Diff was coming back so I went and worked with a Naturopathic doctor because I refused to keep taking antibiotics. The naturopathic doctor put me on herbal antimicrobial for a month along with other things like GI revive to heal my gut. I took lots of probiotics and S Boulardii was a game changer. I was taking saccharomyces boulardii three days per day. When I got tested after c Diff was gone but still felt awful lots of loose stools per day they diagnosed me with post infection IBS. Saw a nutritionist that started me on a low FODMAP diet for 6 weeks and slowly introduced food back. It took me a full year to start feeling like human again but I still take probiotics to this day and stopped the S Boulardii now. Hope this helps please ask away. This is something when you learn about you will be able to fight. I bought as well Michelle Moore’s book on c Diff. Google her it was a great book that taught me a lot. Wishing you a speedy recovery. God bless

I didn't get diagnosed for a month and then they gave my flagel which l was allergic to. Platelets dropped to 80 and was very sick. Vancomycin was much better; but honestly it was the S Boulardii that turned me around.
