I had a horrible experience with Cdiff starting last October. I had 4 relapses with meds & had A FMT on February 28th. I’m in remission I think now. My tummy is still not right, but probably never will be. Last week I got some ulcers on my upper gums. They aren’t sore & don’t bleed when I brush. I have porcelain veneers on my six front teeth. I’ve had them almost 4 years & no problem at all. I went to the dentist & he said it was infection. He deadened them & went up under my gums & tried to clean up the infection. He said my teeth were very clean. I use a water pic. I was told that stomach issues could cause this. Generally he would have given antibiotics but since I’m just recovering from Cdiff we opted not to. They look better, but I’m nervous about all this due to possibly as infection that could come back or get worse. Has anyone of you that have had Cdiff had mouth ulcers .?

I sure hope the spores aren’t in my diverticulosis pockets. I an sometimes constipated. I’m worried that the stool will get in the pockets.

@ngotman25. I had 4 relapses & has an FMT. I was down to 85 pounds somy GI was getting very worried. I had it on Feb 28, 2019. My tummy never feels right, but at least the actve Cdiff is gone. My GI said I would always rest positive on the PCR test because we would always have spores, not toxins but we are carriers. I’m afraid of lots of foods I’m not sure ab because I also have diverticulosis. I just can’t have a flare of DIVERTICULITIS. That would put me in the hospital on I. Antibiotics. Also I have trouble with constipation. I take probiotics & fiber con. I also drink Kefir & eat yogurt. I’m so tired of everything making my side hurt. I still feel weak & feel like it never feel well again. That Cdiff monster has ruined my life. Anyone have constipation & what do you do. ?

I really don’t know why I ask questions, I don’t even get an opinion.

Thank you fior answering. I so appreciate any input. I clean myself good before I get in. My Drs nurse practitioner said a warm bath would ease stomach cramps so I took it that she approved. I use flushable wet wipes every time I use the bathroom even just urine. I just wanted an opinion. Thank you again.

I take a bath instead of a shower due to a balance issue & running water. I Clorox my tub everyday but is sitting in the bath water a bad thing.?

I would like to see some response to this too. I have intestinal issues due to damage from severe Cdiff. I desperately need something for nutrients too, as I’m still unable to tolerate many foods that I used to that are healthy.

I posted this morning about my experience with Cdiff. It was under acres. It’s disappeared. This has happened before. It was informative & I know I like to read others experiences. I hope a moderator will tell me where my posts are going.
