Thank you so much for the book suggestion. I think I will buy that one for sure.

regarding the c-diff. God only knows how I got it. I guess my gut was so messed up from all the other stuff and the fact that I am exposed to it on a daily basis in the hospital where I work. I refused the antibiotic that my doctor recommended. I felt like antibiotics messed me up in the first place (I took them for acne for over 7 years) and just didn't want to take another. My doctor gave me Tinidazole (for 10 days), oil of oregano, Floraster, and L-glutamine. I also took digestive enzymes and betaine HCL with each meal. In about 2 months I started also taking a probiotic from Custom Probiotics and later stopped the oil of oregano.

Thanks you so much for your replies. I'm feeling pretty down lately. I turn 40 tomorrow!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
