<p>GA2012Mom,</p>

<p>I can’t help you on the antibiotics but never opened this thread until now and I want to express my sorrow and support for your incident and your recovery. Very sorry to hear you have gone through this. Sending healing thoughts of all kinds.</p>

<p>GA2012Mom-
You are in my thoughts and prayers! The sort of incident that happens rarely but really could happen to any one of us any time! I hope you are healing well.</p>

<p>The last time I had to take a longish course of antibiotics I just took acidophilus pills - too hard to deal with the live culture yogurt deal. I think I bought them at WalMart and I think they helped - no yeast infections or anything else like that, anyway.</p>

<p>Happened to my dad this past year as he was recovering from surgery. The antibiotics for a urinary tract infection kill off some of the bacteria in your gut and the c.diff that is already in your gut and isn’t affected by the antibiotic are given have free rein to grow like crazy. Of course, you get a new antibiotic that works against the c. diff…</p>

<p>I should tell him about the pribiotics.</p>
