Holding It Together
My daughter had a bad case of c diff last month. She currently still has c diff positive stool but is asymptomatic - formed soft stools, not diarrhea or pain. She also happens to have an infected blood clot that they are treating inpatient with IV vancomycin. In discharge planning, the docs are planning to give her oral clindamycin, which is notorious for activating c diff. To counter that risk, they want to give her flagyl. Has anyone else been in this situation and not gotten a reactivation of c diff?
