@cre8tive I, too, suffered from cdiff in 2018. Also had 3 separate relapses which brought me into March of 2019. At that time, my gastroenterologist suggested fmt which I did and so far has been successful. I, too, wondered why I wasn't offered fmt sooner? I have decided it's the drug company that produces vancomycin. I truly believe that they make the patient go through 3 rounds of vancomycin ( which for me was very expensive!) The fmt costs a lot less but they don't give a hoot about the patient! I still have not been able to gain back the 14 lbs I lost. I don't know of anyone who has been able to get the fmt after the first or second relapse. It's all about the money!
