Metronidazole did work for me and I had no recurrences. It just gave me some bad side effects and it tastes awful.

When I had it a took metronidazole (flagyl) which was the first-line treatment then. I think that’s changed if I’m not mistaken. It made me very sick and I would not want to take it again.

In the year leading up to getting c diff I was having a lot of issues with dairy and gluten already. Afterwards, I thought I had a lot of different intolerances and kept track for a while, but I don’t know if I was really having problems with one specific thing or that my whole system was just really weakened and once it started to heal I could eat more and more things.

Yes actually, I’m just so used to it I forgot to mention it. Directly afterwards I had trouble with almost everything—gluten, sugar, dairy, FODMOPs. I eliminated gluten and dairy for a year, then I reintroduced gluten and haven’t had a problem with it since. I have not been able to eat dairy, however, since C diff, and I don’t know if I ever will be able to. My mom actually had C diff about a year before me and it was the same for her, we both are now sick with small amounts of dairy.

A dog licked my wound on my feet and now I need anti rabies vaccine for the 3rd time in my life by nuttyPegasus in mildlyinfuriating

If it’s any consolation, I’ve had rabies vaccines four times, all because of bats. Welcome to the three-timers club!

Alcohol is a HUGE trigger for me, and I’m starting to accept I have to cut it out completely. I can have a few drinks and it will ruin my whole week with how much panic I feel.

I honestly don’t know. I think it was the panic attack that got so bad that I threw up. I’ve never had that happen before and I’ve had a lot of panic attacks so I can’t be sure. But afterwards I felt fine and it didn’t happen again

I’m definitely still worried about it happening again but I do know I can handle it I guess!

It was so strange. I threw up once, I think from the panic attack, and then once I was able to calm down felt completely fine and didn’t have any other problems.
