I was just reading through some more of the posts and I read I think in Bobbies post that even vanco can cause the c-diff to flare?
I am so confused. Could someone please help me with this? My diarreaha has gotten worse when I started taking the vanco. Aaargh.
Can anyone give me any info on this?
Thanks so much
Darlene

crying silly,
Don't believe I ever posted Vanco. can cause C. diff. Occasionally, Flagyl can. Some people, however, don't return to "normal" while on Vanco. because even it "kills" some of the good bacteria in the gut -- while also killing the C. diff.
Remember, we are not in the medical field & can just tell you about our own experiences. As Christina said, consult your GI re. medical questions as some people need a higher dosage of Vanco.
Pls. refer first topic in first forum (PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU POST) re. posting rules -- only one post a day about your own problems. You can ask as many questions in the post as you want. You can post numerous times to support others.

Darlene,
It's OK. I remember how awful I felt when I had C. diff. We need to limit posts because it's hard to keep the board covered. We have 5 mods. Several work & travel, & we all have our own problems.
Noticed you are feeling better. Good. It can take Vanco. awhile to "kick in" -- with me it was always 3 to 4 days.
