Trying to recover from a c. diff infection (Clostridium difficile)

Oh Lacy, my heart goes out to you. I wish I could give you a hug. Thank you for researching the other effects of c-dif. This episode of c-dif is different from when I got it in 2019. You are absolutely correct about the loads of laundry and I’ll probably get brain damage from breathing in the disinfectant. I wish my bathroom had a window. I don’t think doctors test after the vancomycin treatment. I’m in the States and I asked for the stool test in 2019 and my Dr also said they don’t do follow-up testing. It’s a very frustrating infection. Please take care.

@judy75 I could do with a hug right now... well when we consider that many , especially older patients in hospital, can die from c.diff it puts the infection into perspective but it seems many are walking around who have it and don't know.... why it hits some people harder than others.... I already had bowel issues and why I took I think 5 antibiotics for uti without questioning my doctor I dont know! Fosfomycin finally did me in...Well I used a LOT of bleach and later read it is not good to breath in.... but I wonder with all these places using disinfectants for Covid, how safe the air is...such as my dentist, pharmacy... it truly is a horrible situation in all aspects. Thanks for the reply, June
