Hello all,
I am a 30 year old, female.
I was diagnosed with c diff about 3 weeks ago after taking antibiotics for minor oral surgery. I was one vancomycin for 10 days and am a little under two weeks post vanco. I was significantly "better" until yesterday. I decided to try a new food at dinner around 7pm (asparagus). After about just half of one piece, my stomach began to hurt so I stopped. Flash forward to 4am this morning and I had to rush to the bathroom. It's now 12pm and I have gone 8 or 9 times (I've lost track). I don't know if it was the asparagus, which I learned is high in insoluble fiber or if I'm relapsing. It just doesn't feel the same as when I had c diff. It's vigorous WD, but no M. I also had a high fever, fatigue, weakness, nausea/vomiting when I had c diff, but only loose stools, and a heavy amount of M no WD. I don't have any of that right now. I'm well aware of the 3-day rule and today is only day one, but my anxiety and fear is through the roof. I was going to wait to post to see if it cleared up or not, but my anxiety got the better of me.
I've been reading through this forum and I feel like support is what I need. I'm so thankful this exists and hope we are all as good as we can be some day!

Re: Relapse or PI-IBS?
If it continues call your Dr.
3 day rule is fine if your borderline 3x a day crampy or mushy but frequent watery D does indicate a relapse.

Ah okay. It's been 3 hours since my last go. If it comes back again, I will call my doctor. Thank you! Will post an update - hopefully a positive one!

Hopefully just a rough few hours and your body beats it off.
If it comes back with a vengeance get your Drs advice.
