Hi all
I got my test results back as negative. My dr wanted to test for a cure as I had to go back in antis for mastitis.
The referral said a “c diff toxin clearance” test.
I’ve seen they Used the LAMP method.
Is this negative result a reliable result ??
I wish I could put a pic of my results but don’t know how to upload it
My dr , as said before , doesn’t seen to know much abt c diff seemingly.
Had it been positive he wanted to treat it. Even though I’m not symptomatic
Hence I’m asking you guys Cos ur way smarter than the Drs here ...
I guess it wouldn’t test for dormant spores
I finished keflex for mastitis
So fingers crossed there isn’t a dormant spores that wants to party again
LAMP TEST RELIABLE?

Re: LAMP TEST RELIABLE?
LAMP is similar to PCR as far as I know, also uses DNA and is supposed to be very reliable. I had it done a few years ago at one hospital that used that method rather than PCR.
