Well being on Cellcept and Medrol this past winter I seemed to pick up more bugs than usual and was on antibiotics a few times. So I was more susceptible to picking up germs so was on more antibiotics than usual. Well because of this I now have something called C. Diff which is terribly unpleasant and giving my stomach issues for months and I just kept putting it off because the stomach issues would come and go. The antibiotics killed off the good bacteria in my stomach and so this bad stuff, C. Diff, basically took over in a sense. Being that I had a weakended immune system apparently made it easier for this too happen to. So my advice even if like 3 months after taking an antibiotic and your on immune suppressing stuff get checked for this. I have lost 6lbs since March because I haven't been eating right because I get full so quick and then half the time have terrible diarrhea.
