C Difficile

Oh boy....if you are diagnosed with it again, please ask that it be cultured for specific strain.

I think you should consider FMT?

I agree.....keep us posted tomorrow.
Hugs. Tell Pumpkin you need extra ones 😊

I got the C DIff result back and it's negative!!

But, I am not convinced. I am going to do another test tomorrow. Whatever the result I am winding down on the Prednisone because it really is not working for me on so many levels. I just need to get to a place whereby I can start taking the LDN again as I had to stop because it was very clear to me after day three that my body was fighting between the two. High dose Pred and LDN simply dont go together. Once I am at 10g pred I will start back on the LDN.

Many of the fruits and veggies you mention I cannot have, due to serious salicylate issue which is probably causing me long term issues. But, I can have a couple of things you mention, like lentils, and golden delicious apples (it has to be that brand) and maybe I can try with water Kefir again, which unfortunately turned on me!

I am actually trying to sell my house, although large, it has a tiny garden! which was a big mistake as I want to start growing my own veggies and and some fruits.

Thanks mucho

Bull..Take a look at the following book, it is helping me beyond belief.

I feel like this book has been thrown into my lap for a reason. Imagine if you never have to worry again about foods that may cause you problems, knowing what you can eat before you eat it! Imagine if through muscle testing that you can get up in the morning and know within 5 minutes what shape you are in? It is possible.

There will be more people reading this skeptical than believers and that's fine, but a recent Harvard University study on Kinesiology found the results so incredible that they had to ask for them to be repeated all over again..with the same results...that must count for something.

Read the book first, then start trying to muscle test, it takes some people a while to do it but it is incredible. I use the sway method (standing up method) There is a lot of stuff online to help.

misnwther...your too intense. I get that your passionate but as I have already told you my problems are no where near the same as yours, I have many other complicated issues that most people have never heard of.


Anyway, I did FMT earlier this morning. It was quick as I don't feel like I need to hang around long as I am super sensitive to everything. At nine this morning I was pooping bloody mucous. At 12 I had a watery poop but without a drop of blood in it! I have no idea what tomorrow will bring, but hopefully it will be better. I am waiting on the results of my other C Diffile test today.

Two consecutive false negatives would be a fairly solid no. Treat based on symptoms though, especially if other c diff signs are present (strong odor and/or quick onset) and a prior history of it.

Thanks everyone. I realize that two tests usually mean a conclusive no, but what I have decided to do is send one last test through to the local hospital in the morning. This hospital diagnosed me last time with C Diff and they might be more accurate...where I live things are sloppy and accidents happen all the time here.

I've got a few false negative in the past, so yep I really think it's possible to have 2 false negative in a row and still have c-diff....I do not trust those tests, so I am paranoid just as you.

You made the right decision to try another lab. Make shure to bring a super fresh sample. I read that in only two hours one of the c-diff toxin can be gone! I think that's what I did wrong. And I also tried activated charcoal ... which lead to false negative, I would'nt recommand at all.... It only absord the toxin that gives the symptoms, doesn't kill the beast.

In my case, Pred hide the biggest symptoms for c-diff, but other remains. The first false negative I've got, my doc put me on pred for a month and a half (he thought I was only flaring) and I was feeling very bad. I was desperate for help, I've been able to lower my symptoms with oregano oil and s. boulardii. The day I stopped pred, fever came back and c-diff hit hard again. But this time the stool test was right wouhou

The last flare, I've got 2 negatives in a row even though it had exact symptoms of c-diff mixed with a good Crohn's flare... Oregano oil helped me again, but it just can do the job, not strong enough. My GI finally gave me Vanco, just in case it was false negative, to avoid surgery and I got sooooo much better...

I meant to ask iPoop, if I am just pooping mucus and blood (no stool) could that simply be UC? as that's what is happening, my stools have completely disappeared just like last time when I had C DIff.

okay thanks.
