clostridium difficile. It causes violent diarrhea and has to be treated with either oral vancomycin or metronidazole. It happens when you take antibiotics which kill the healthy flora of the colon and the c dif takes over.
My nephew just had it, so bad. It was terrible. He lost about 20 pounds because he didn't want to tell anyone he was pooping his head off.
