That's why I want to go to mayo. They have docs that specialize in c diff there and it's everything in one place. No rushed feeling at your appts.
If the doctors knew how we felt there would be urgency and a sense of concern and encouragement. I'm here for support whenever you need it. People think its just an upset stomach and it'll go away eventually. No it's far from that. I'm currently sitting in the er right now due to shortness of breath. The doctor that diagnosed you with c diff shouldn't not have put you on any of those. An antibiotic and and probiotic is what you need. Antibiotic you'd probably need vancomycin and for the probiotic
You should get florastor. Best of luck to you and your recovery. Like I said I'm here for support.
You feel like complaining and no one else
Will listen I'm here. I want to slap people that tell me to stay positive lol

I see this was posted in 2012. If you are still active on this subject I'd like to know how you are now. I've been suffering for 8 months and getting no answers after C Diff.

I’m new here. I had my first bout of c-diff June 3rd 2024 and was in the hospital for 5 days and so sick. I took vancomycin for 21 days along with Florastor. I had a colonoscopy on July 3rd and everything looked good.
Friday July 12 I woke up with the yellow, mucous, stinking diarrhea. Dr ordered stool test and it’s positive. I’m doing a Vanco taper and my dr wants me to have an Zinplava infusion.
This disease messes with your mind causing severe anxiety. I’m now on an antidepressant because I just can’t handle it anymore.
If you research it there is a connection between your mind and your gut. When your gut is out of whack it affects your brain.
I feel so bad for every person who deals with this disease.
