Glad you're okay

I've been sick since 14 dropped from 120 to 80 pounds, constant pain, etc. I can't even figure out how to get refered to a Gastro. I decided to order my own Calpractin test online today and I'll figure out where to take it depending on how the results come back. I definitely don't have C-diff though, I have something else but I don't know what. Ppl are telling me to look into IBD. I can't get doctors to do any real test and colonoscopy has 50+ age restrictions and I only just turned 18. What did you do to get doctors to finally do something?

I had antibiotics while having Vitamin D3. My diarrhoea turned into constipation and I am bloated and cannot digest food properly. So I am losing weight. Did you have those symptoms? I need to know so I can understand if I have a c. diff.

Is she alive?

That’s abuse. Screw that nursing home.

I've had C-diff. my aunt got it in a nursing home and that's where I got it. She died, I survived barely. The problem now is what can you take for infection? Sounds like she could have yeast overgrowth also. Poor lady, I understand the pain.

@@phyllisharrell174 She passed in April from sepsis. The nursing home failed to investigate her complaints of UTI in a timely manner. As her children, we tried so hard to monitor her care.

I have had C-diff twice, after spine surgery #4 & #5. You get diarrhea that looked like green grass. I also died 2 times after spine #4.

If I am correct Sepsis is blood poisoning & C-diff is a bacterial infection. I survived C-diff. Horrible pain where I thought I was not going to make it for 4 months. My doctor gets the credit for not giving up on me.

@@doeidaho2101 hello praise God you are well . Who was yr doctor are u from Idaho?

I’m sorry for your loss

I am 61, got bit by a Dog twice . 7 months apart. The antibiotics killed my good bacteria and toxin A& Toxin B attacked me both times. August 2022 is when I was recovering. They don't test for toxin A Toxin B again if diarrhea has stopped. My first test was solid fecal which tested positive. The first round the ER had to take a CT scan to make sure that I did not have diverticulitis along with CDIFF. That was negative in March. Now In November 2022 I have inflammation of the sigmoid intestine with mild diverticulitis, extremely painful. No blockage they said but since November 22, 2022 I would be lucky to have cleared 5 cups of fecal matter. Now with no cysts, no pus, just inflammation the Dr. Has me on 1500 metronidazole and 1000 Cipro ciproflox N , the pharmacist said that for sure the ciproflox will definitely give me CDIFF again. Plus Cipro can destroy the archillis tendon. Spelt wrong I am so tired and in so much pain. The doc says no over the counter pain pills , no narcotics. Just clear liquid. Antibiotics for 10 days plus polyethylene glycol to get more of my already loose stuff out. I just need anti inflammatory cure so stuff can heal and work properly. Is what I think . If I follow Drs above advice I think I will die or be crippled or a colonoscopy,or even an autoimmune disease at some time

I was diagnosed last week! May I ask how you are doing?

I went in for an uti as well I can’t hold my food

Ma'am. R u OK? I'm also suffering from antibiotic diarrhea.. Doctor is unable to dignose it... What should I do? Please help me

I can I know.. I have c. diff?

So sorry for your loss

My sincere condolences. But,... why don't U use this sad contretemps and knowledge to your serendipitous advantage, for lack of a better word? Look at Seres therapeutics stock, MCRB. They have an anti C. Diff. drug and a PDUFA date with potential FDA approval on April 26th. If approved, your uncle's passing will prove your serendipity to make a lot of money from your knowledge of this medical condition. I'm talking from experience: had a family member who ages ago fell victim to his peanuts allergy. It proved serendipitous in hindsight, for the thorough first hand knowledge made me invest in Aimmune who had developped an anti peanut allergy treatment and who eventually got bought out by Nestlé Health. Incidentally, said Aimmune is now in collaboration & co development with Seres therapeutics of this anti C diff treatment. My condolences again to your bereavement.

Oh my god! Well i’m glad you made it out alive. I’m dealing with a similar thing, I got a skin infection which turned into an abscess on my torso which freaked me out and now i’m on antibiotics so i’m worried about how it will affect my gut flora. I really don’t want to get sick from this

@@grimreefer213 if you’re taking clindamycin you have a very good chance of getting c. Diff. I’d stop taking it before a disaster happens and ask for a different one with less risk of c. Diff developing and then taking over your gut flora like a freight train.

My aunt, 76, was given an antibiotic which caused it. She is in hospital right now, her fourth relapse. The smell was something to be believed. I've been disinfecting everything! If she wasn't taking Sutherlandia Frutescens, Fulvic acid and discontinuing her big pharma drugs, I don't think she would have made it. I'm so grateful to God she hasn't died. But, I'm taking her to Cape Town to have a fecal matter transplant soon. We also use a product called Rawbiotics. It's made here in South Africa. I've ordered vit D, as well, to build her immunity.

To avoid recurrent you can have fmt

​@@grimreefer213are you ok now

Apko bhi howa tha

Pakistan! C-Diff - always use "Nail Brushes" when washing hands!!!

I'm so sorry for your loss. It's a brutal disease and so difficult to recover from.

I’m so sorry for your loss may he Rest In Peace

Thank you for sharing what could be life saving information for someone else during this time of pain and separation. May YHWH/Jesus bless you & keep you.

At 55, wow that is sad. Sounds like an awful way to go, i’m sorry to hear that

I am so sorry. May I ask which hospital? I have c. Diff and am wondering if I contracted it somewhere or if it was from clindamycin. I’m sure the clindamycin didn’t help matters but I’m going through hell right now, spending hours and hours in the bathroom. It’s not sustainable and I’m starting an antibiotic tomorrow

Because we must "trust the science". It's a money racket.

Because med schools are run by pharma…follow the money

We were told that the antibiotics destroyed the good bacteria in the gut so they give different antibiotics to replenish the good bacteria.

No

Paronychia of the foot can be topically disinfected and bandaged daily by a podiatrist without antibiotics.

What's reason and treatment

Ask for Deficid its better then any other one and take a probiotic w high doses of cultures. Like vsl#3

Fidaxomin is crap. And so is vancomycin it only makes worse and prolongs cdiff. I know I a severe case for 8 mos. Deficid along w the infusion that goes along w it works better then any of it. Iam a witness

L Reuteri probiotic and saccharomyces Boulardii (yeast)... take both of these while on antibiotics and after antibiotics.

I might have this

I been on and off taking amoxicillin for a sinus infection and had diarrhea for 4 months now been feeling so sick and the doctors can’t figure out what’s wrong
