A great article and interview. You really did a good job, and hope it informs a lot of people of what we have been dealing with. Thank you for doing it.

Jeff, you are a brave man for both enduring what you have and going to the paper with your C-Diff. I hope many will read that story and learn about the dangers of over antibiotic use, when to use probiotics and the severe nature of C-Diff. Looks like the reporter wrote the story very well also, glad they consulted your good doctors. This is a great public service, I just hope people pay attention to it, many think "I'm fine, that's not me, who cares" when they see medical stories with issues they don't think will ever effect them, but this one very well could.

Good for you, Jeff. It is so important and so difficult to get any info about cdiff out to the public. You have really helped the cause. It's an excellent article. Thank you!

FYI, I went to high school in WV too, Nitro High near Charleston. Where were you?

Great article Jeff. Hopefully it will help some people think twice before running to get antibiotics for something little.

Wonderful article Jeff, thank you for opening up you and your families lives to how hard not only physically but emotinally to not only the victim but to those around them. It summed up and covered perfectly everything from overuse of antibiotics to all the surrounding physical, emotional and financial issues that go along with having cdiff. Thank your wife for her honesty to how this has affected her as well. I pray also that you finally fight off this nasty bug for good this time.

In the article, I read that researchers are working on a vaccine. Jeff, do you know anything about this?

[BirmanMama]

Great article and wonderful of you to share your experiences so others may learn.

I need to go to the on line chat with Dr Saco tomorrow and ask that question. I had heard that before but had no idea they were close.

[Mommy23]

I too, have heard that a vaccine is being worked on, but that it could be years away.
