My heart goes out to all who suffer from C-diff!
After suffering 5 episodes in a year and a half (having been treated with Vancomycin pulse & taper method each time by my GP, a Gastro Dr. treated me with 2 weeks Vancomycin 2 times/day, followed immediately by 4 weeks of Xifaxin (also known as
Rifaxamin). I now take Garden of Life Probiotic for Women and have (myself) added 1 Align probiotic every 3rd day - to try & build up the good bacteria in my gut. Also, no raw fruits or raw veggies (only cooked veggies)/no cruciferous (gaseous) veggies/ plain chicken or salmon/oatmeal in a.m. with tablespoon of Psyllium (fiber) sprinkled on it and 2 tablespoons of apple sauce on it/ LOTS of liquids (filtered water/plain tea/ soup or broth, throughout the day/NO sweets or added sugar/NO spicy or fried foods.
So far, so good since end of November (now 2 1/2 months). Wish me luck.
Hope this might work for someone else, too.
N.B. I am not a medical professional. Just researched online and tried different bland options.
