Got a diagnosis....I tested positive for C.Diff and my CT showed infected colitis which is what C.Diff is. My doctor believes it was triggered by the antibiotic I was on when I had my nasal surgery...so waiting now for a plan from doctor.....

Yay, diagnosis. Not that C-Dif is easy, but there are fixes for it. Continuing in prayer for you both and all the kitties that things start turning around.

I thought that is what you had. I had C diff when I was having Chemo I feel for you.. I know what it is like. They do have meds to help fast... I know how miserable that is. I am praying for you for a fast recovery... I just feel so bad for you. I really know how you feel. HUGS

My husband recently had this, so we feel for you. He would go 12 times a day some days to the bathroom with diarrhea. He lost 16 pounds but when lab (stool specimen) confirmed diagnosis he continued the antibiotics doctor had went ahead and started him on a few days before.He is completely well of it now and just had a colonoscopy that showed no signs of bacteria. He was scheduled for colonoscopy anyway not because of bacteria. Hope you feel better soon and can get started on the right meds.

Hubby got it from contaminated water. Town water had boil advisory but we were unaware. No electricity for 5 days so no news and not on Facebook.
