Hi

Did a search on our forum but didn't come up with much

.

The C-diff came back for the 2nd time and had been treated with 125 mg of vancomycin for 2 weeks then went tapered down to 3-2-1 pill for 3 weeks.

This ID specialist treats on the worst cases and found that over the past 6 months this 50 billion capsule has really healed the flora and got it in balance with almost all his patients.

He took me off the vanco and just doing this along with 4 capsules of Asacol 3 times a day.

Any experiences will be appreciated.

Hi Judy: (in Temecula :P )

I am not familiar what your issues are but apparently recurrent C-diff. If it's probiotics (and good ones) that you are looking for, I have just been prescribed a really good one by Krispin Sullivan (The Krispin Report - on lectins), to heal my leaky gut, don't know how well it would work on C-diff, but it contains 7 probiotics, is in a micronized powder that you sprinkle on yogurt, ice cream, whatever, or mix with water (if you must :rolleyes: ) that contains 254 billion organisms. It is resistant to digestion until it reaches the right place and it is called VSL#3 and is available from Sigma-Tau Pharmaceuticals on-line. It is pricey, but if you have been having this problem for a long time it might be worth it. I apparently still have a leaky gut which is why I have all these lectin intolerances which we are trying to send on their way back to where they belong - safely inside the lectin plants and not playing gobbledygook with my heart rhythms :unsure: . Just a thought if what you are trying doesn't work (which I hope does :) )

      My 5 months of Struggle

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Art Maltman! Ask your physician to order serum antibody tests specifically designed to detect celiac disease. That's the place to start but you shouldn't be on a gluten free diet some weeks before the blood draw. You certainly have some symptoms that are characteristic of celiac disease and you have a first degree relative that has celiac disease. So, I think this would be an appropriate request to bring to your physician. Here is an article outlining the various serum antibody tests that can be ordered when checking for celiac disease:   The physician may not be open to ordering a full panel but push for at least these two: total IGA and tTG-IGA. By the way, absence of gut pain is very common in the celiac population. We call them "silent" celiacs as they have no or very minor symptoms. There are over 200 symptoms and spinoff health issues that have become associated with celiac disease and the range of symptoms and effects produced by the disease in different individuals various tremendously.

      About 5 Months ago I got a little bit sick and since then I have been having trouble focusing, rembering, thinking thought through, having pressure on my head and even just talking to friends normaly has become a challange. I also have been having yellowish poops. My father was has celiac but I am not sure if thats what is causeing my problems becasue I dont have any abdomnial pain like him. i have also tried going gluten free for a week with no results, but maybe i just need to try for longer. I have gone to doctors but they haven't had really any ideas as to whats wrong with me they just say it could be anything and try this drug maybe it will work. I really am tired of feeling terrible all the time and if any one knows if these symptoms are common to celiac or has any other ideas whats wrong with me please let me know.
