This all first started with just nausea but since February I started having rectal bleeding but no bowel issues until after the colonoscopy that identified a bacterial infection and within a week or two ended up catching parasite that I experienced diarrhea, mucus, and stinky stools. Not too long after that, I had a kidney infection that caused vaginal bleeding even though I had a hysterectomy, three weeks ago I started having terrible diarrhea and my GI doctor did a stool sample which showed C.Diff. When I get lab work done it takes 30 minutes for it to stop bleeding.

@kanaazpereira sorry it's my first time on this site and having a bit of an issue navigating. I'm learned though.

Teresa, hi. I am sorry to hear you are struggling. It's, unfortunately, you have all these symptoms. I struggle with Cdif myself and haven't experienced any bleeding, so I can relate to some of your problems. I hope you get well soon!
