Have any of you seen this? Or read about it yet? This sounds WAY better to me than a fecal transplant. The study was for people with C-diff, but I wonder how it would work on us???
Pills made from poop cure serious gut infections

I read it a couple hours ago. Strange but promising.

Stef - Thanks for posting this. Having suffered from a C.diff infection that took several rounds of antibiotics to cure, this sounds really promising. Also, I only edited your post to make a hyperlink and just the story's title since the link was so long.

If anyone knows of a Dr who will perform any type of fecal transplant for CD patients with no Cdiff please let me know. They do the fecal transplant at HFH Detroit Mi but only for Cdiff.

Ides, I'm glad you fixed my link. I was hoping one of the mods would come along and do that. I just think this is AWESOME that they have poop pills now! I know so many of us would spend a fortune just to get our hands on them in an effort to get better.
