It's been a little over 1 year since I ended my Vanco taper. Still C diff free! I have been though other battles with Interstitial Cysytitis, yeast infections, IBS, surgery and UTI's. I can say I didn't relapse from IV Vanco (surgery) Macrobid or Doxycycline - although I did a crazy probiotic schedule along with it.
C diff has brought other challenges into my life but I'm happy to say I have most of them under control most of the time and that I still am "healthy".
If anyone wants to know what I do with probiotics when I have to take abx I'd be glad to share. If anyone ended up with post Vanco irritated bladder or "IC", I'd be happy to share how I found relief from that as well.
Thank God for this site, the people on here have helped so much - through some of my darkest moments that no one else I know understands because they haven't had this nasty crap - twice.
It's gets better, and they are getting closer to treating this crap better too! :)
It's been a YEAR!!!!!!

Re: It's been a YEAR!!!!!!
Hello Kelsey,
I would be very interested in knowing what probiotics you have done and what you did to get relief from irritated bladder. This is my first c-diff diagnosis and hope that I am on the mend. However, I recently feel the need to pee more often and wondered if it was increased water intake or medicine (Vancomycin). I have no pain, just frequency.
Thanks, Christy
