C.  diff is a nasty disease that sneaks into your digestive track and takes you for a ride, not on your terms and without your consent. Your hospitalization may be short and relatively uneventful, or it can end up as your cruelest nightmare. You want to know how to get rid of this plight, and more importantly, how to keep it from coming back. This book shows you how, and explains when to go to the hospital.

Ted Ted Gordon developed his third case of C. diff, before he finally realized that if he did nothing different, he was quite likely to experience a fourth round of infection.

This book is for patients in the hospital with C. diff, and people who have had the disease. It offers quick, accurate facts without over- whelming the reader with extra detail. The book is not intended for medical students or doctors. It is priced low so hospitals can provide copies to their patients.
