C-DIFF strikes

I must apologise for any worries I caused by not posting last night, but Saturday was a pretty traumatic experience and time was in rather short supply. I am not sure I will ever be able to find a form of words to describe in this blog how the day unfolded.

The Clindamycin I am taking causes diarrhoea, and mine is C-DIFF positive. Aside from amy other concern, they moved me to a bigger room to minimise the chance of airborne infection, i.e. me infecting someone else! The diarrhoea was/is pretty severe, requiring intervention every 10 minutes. But as ever the nursing team coped admirably. 

I do not think anyone should visit whilst this situation continues.
