Does it? I felt really crappy the last few days, I had taken Clindamycin for my tooth abscess and it has cleared up, my question though I had mild/moderate diarrhea then got constipated, now Im starting to have stools again today. I am feeling way better today than I was yesterday by far I thought I was going to die. I am supposed to "deliver" a sample to the hospital so my doc can check me for c-diff...but he wants the diarrhea sample, I haven't had any to give in a few days. Not sure what to think, I'm just scared of feeling like I did for the past two days...I felt great for a week and then bam for two days, then last night and today I have felt better. Thanks for any input guys!

You probably just had antibiotic related stomach problems but I would give the stool sample anyways. C diff is a dangerous ailment although if you have not been hospitalized or on antibiotics for more that two weeks then you probably do not have c diff since you now feel better.

Are you eating live culture yogurt and probiotics? If not, you should be - daily - and starting today.

"Clindamycin was the antibiotic that was used for many of the older c diff studies and is not any more likely to cause c diff than any other antibiotic " - my infectious disease Dr

Still - give the stool sample, find out for sure whether you have c diff and then you can quit worrying about having c diff.

After & because of Einstein's Theory of Relativity, it was made up to give God a more unassailable position within a scientific debate. But any reading of The Bible, as you have casually done, will reveal that the idea is totally foreign to The Bible authors. The six days of creation disproves it easily. PS: The teaching omnipresence is also a modern invention. The closest you can get to omnipresence in The Bible is in a psalm that speaks about the inability to escape from God. But the whole idea of omnipresence would become quite unacceptable if you merely ask : Does God exist in Satan or Hitler ??? That question falls right into The Unforgivable Sin making it impossible to say God is omnipresent !!! Modern religion is by no means limited to The Bible and often results in Bibilical Heresy, a good example of this would be theistic evolution. There is a very good reason why no one would ever be able to show their verse by verse symbolic commentary on The Creation Account because it would violate The Author's Theme which is "The Miraculous Creation of God" so the details would kill this poorly conceived idea before the ink had time to dry.

C-difficile is a serious illness that can leave you ill for weeks. A temporary bout of diarrhea is very commonly caused by food poisoning. If you're already feeling better, that's good news. Make sure you rehydrate yourself well.
As always when feeling ill, monitor your temperature. If you have a temp over 103 degrees F, go to the ER.

if you took clindamycin and took the entire course, it is doubtful that you have c-diff. If you did, it would not go away by itself. Just take a sample of diarhea in if it occurs again to be safe.

c-diff will not go away on its own and needs to be treated or your crappy feeling will get worse. you need to provide a sample if possible.
