All I see is the negative..maybe the positive ones just aren't commenting. I had co-amoxiclav and I have never been okay since. The Dr won't prescribe until my stool sample com s back but I am sure it will be a course of antibiotics am I stuck with this for life ?
Hi everyone. I tested positive for c diff via pcr and negative for toxins, but based on my symptoms (more uti symptoms mixed with some cdiff symptoms) my doctor wants to treat me and for me to see an infectious disease specialist, which I'm seeing next week. I've got vanco but my gi said I should wait until I see the ID to take it. So we don't make me worse apparently, which is scary. I feel like a ticking time bomb. In the meantime until I see the ID doctor, I'm in a full anxiety OCD spiral because I'm paranoid I'm going to give this to my whole family. I'm terrified I'm covered in it no mater how clean I am. We're washing our hands to the point their becoming raw. I'm cleaning the bathroom after every time I go to the bathroom and we can't keep going like this as our hands are becoming raw and painful and we're going through Clorox healthcare cleaner and wipes and gloves like crazy. Do I need to be cleaning my entire bathroom and toilet every time I go pee or just when I poop? My poop isn't diarrhea and is just soft solid and I'm going a lot. I always close the toilet boil when I flush except when I need to flush when I'm sitting on it cleaning myself and need to flush so I don't clog the toilet. I'm changing my clothes after I go to the bathroom, cleaning my clothes separately, we're using separate bathrooms but have to use the same shower but I'm showering last and then cleaning the whole shower after I shower so it's disinfected by the time they go in there again. I'm cleaning the floors and everything. I'm losing my mind! Do I need to be losing my mind like this. Do I need to do this for the rest of my life? Should I start taking Florastor as I've seen people say it helps or some say it made them worse. So I don't know what to do. I'm afraid my husband is going to leave me if he can never touch me again. I can't keep going like this. The bleach is making me sick too. I just need some guidance, advice and to feel like I'm not covered in the plague.
