I’m sorry that you have this problem as well. The vancomycin failed and now the Dificid that I just finished does not seem to have worked either. The gastroenterologist said that I had to wait to be retested but did not indicate how long. This experience has been beyond frustrating and you wonder if this infection can be eradicated but seemingly you are always going to be colonized with the bacteria to some extent.

@nerofish My first test came back negative so I had to go another week prior to retesting. During that two weeks, I lost 10 pounds and was miserable. This was my 4th bout with C-diff so I knew, without a doubt, what it was. I've been off Dificid for 8 days now and pray it works.
