C Diff success story?

C Diff, when antibiotics kill off your good intestinal flora, and should you have recurring episodes and/or unable to tolerate Flagyl, know that Vancomycin works better and is easily tolerated (but costs more) and that taking a pro biotic like Florajen 3 daily is crucial to rebuild the good intestinal flora. And if still having recurrences, S. Boulardi (Florastor) taken 4 per day and available at Walmart and Walgreen's over the counter, works great. Not really a question, just wanted this info out there. This information can be a godsend if suffering from C Diff.

    I do understand what your saying but understand something when talking about C. Diff. es Flagyl is hard to take, but sometimes when taking Flagyl people need to take with yoguart.We want to make sure this is live cultured yougart. This cost the intestines very well, Please no fruit with it. Be very careful about changing your doctors prescription without them knowing, this may cause you to have constant relapses. Also make a food journal. I mean everything you are taking in including fluids. Also, sometime if you ask your gastro-doctor they may have samples of Flagyl to help to defray the costs.

    Good Luck & best Wishes
