C Diff is difficile!!

Who could have seen it coming? Loads of people? Ok, true. When my doctor asked me if I was taking probiotics when I was mid way through my five weeks of antibiotics, I thought that he meant, "would I be taking probiotics after I was done this course."  He didn't. I didn't know that you're supposed to take them DURING the course! Well, I'll never forget now!! 

Who knew that I could wish that I could go back in time and start antibiotics all over!! I wish I could go back, send in a lovely sample of my mucous, then get the right antibiotics, AND take probiotics. Yes please! Can I go back almost two months!!! My Wahl's protocol is barely existent. ARG!!!

Maybe I'll at least lose some weight with all this diarrhea, right? Not so far. Ugh.  Fingers crossed that it's just water retention?? Yes?? No??

The best/worst part is that the few people that I have told react with the following words: CRAP, SHITTY, OH POOP!! And they don't mean to be punny!! Oh well. It is indeed poopy. 

The perfect virus. Omg. It takes away your appetite and your thirst, all while dehydrating you!!! Evil genius.  

I don't know if I'll be so silly and sarcastic if this continues. I have a fairly mild case, (although it doesn't feel mild) so far. It's been over a week, but (butt) I'm still determined to kick it's butt. 

Goodnight folks, tip your waitress.
