I think I have a recurrence of long ago Cdiff. It is too early yet to test - must wait 3 days? But I would like to get started on the probiotics. I am taking Florastor 2 caps twice a day. I also have Culturelle & Florajen 3. How often should I take those? And any others? I can't afford to mess around if I do have Cdiff again. I was a lot younger the last time & my age would work badly against me if I have a recurrance .I need all the help I can get.

Re: Probiotics
The antibiotic your taking will instantly kill most probiotics so its probably not worth taking them untill after you finished the course.
Florestor is not killed by antibiotics so might be worth taking.
If your having watery D 3x a day you can test.
1st treatment is stopping the offending antibiotic NOT going straight to c.diff treatment!
4 out of 5 cases of antibiotic D are NOT c.diff so dont panic just because your a bit "off" and dont over do suppliments!
