Please name the GI lab stool tests that are the best for detecting infections and parasites.
My MD suspects c. diff. x 3 in the past year but my stool/parasite tests are all negative. She is going by symptoms and appearance at failed colonoscopy.

Does anyone have the info on Florastor Fiber being helpful for C.diff.

Which probiotic has been most helpful and how often to do you take it and do you switch them up every so often?

Anyone try the autoimmune paleo diet for u/c and did it help?

Anyone on SCD diet and has it helped?

Anyone try sour dough bread made from the mother receive and can you tolerate it?

Thank you all again!

(I added a subject)

If your doctor suspects C Diff, then has he/she prescribed antibiotics as a trial to see if it helps?

Paleo and SCD have been tried by many, works for some, does not work for others, and even made some of our symptoms worse. You know the typical run down for UC: try it if you are so inclined but NOBODY can promise/guarantee success. This is a very individual disease! These diets did absolutely nothing for me, as an example.

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I was on vancomycin 4 wk in March ‘19 and again July 4th for 10 days. But was also on Prednisone and started Remicade in March so I don’t know what made a difference.
