Vancomycin for 7 days?

Today is my 7th day of vancomycin and my doctor told me that this might be enough in my case

Do u think I should insist in the last three days or should I trust my doctor?

Help my second test was negative

Hello, i did two Tests bc I thought i had c diff the first one was positive it was also an Toxin test so I already started taking vancomycin im on day 4 now but today my mom called the second doctor and they said my tests came back healthy nothing was wrong and now im lowkey panicking bc I did feel like there was something wrong with me and im already on day 4 of vancomycin so why is the one positive and the other not? And do I continue the vancomycin?

Also the tests were like 6 days apart.

Idk if its tmi but I have it worst around my period like I have excessive mucus in my stool and I did have diarrhea but then I started eating a lot of fiber so now I have more 'normal' but still not like it used to be.

I also started to take s. Boulardii with vanco but I put it in water since I have a hard time swallowing is that OK? Or does it do nothing?

I have my first docs private number but he isn't answeringgggg :(

Vancomycin

Hello i got diagnosed with c diff this Tuesday, but I suspect I had it longer my doc told me to take the vanco 4 times a day one in the early early morning and one in the morning and then one in the evening and one in the late evening. What is that supposed to mean? I need a time to take it, and im thinking of taking probiotics with it but everyone is recommending florastor but im not in the USA but in Germany so I have no idea which one is good for me
