Tracy, are you referring to C. Difficile infection? As in clostridia difficile infection of the GI Tract?
I've been diagnosed with that a couple of times. It's a nasty infection and the Toxins that are produced by the bacterial infection in the gut make you feel so ill.
One of the best ways to get a handle on a C. Diff infection (in addition to the appropriate antibiotics, when needed) is taking a probiotic that has the saccharomyces boullardi strain in it.
There is a product called Florastor that is 100% saccharomyces boullardi. It should be taken even when the C. Diff. infection is being treated with antibiotics.
The first time I had C. Diff I had to go on antibiotics. But I was never told about the Florastor. I ended up with C. Diff again and Florastor was recommended by a new doc and it worked for me.
If you do a Google search for Florastor you can find out more information.
