He's speaking about clostridium difficile
colitis, aka c. Difficile.
They are intestine bacteria that assist in
digestion, but it is considered a "bad"
bacteria. Normally when you're in good
health, your body is able to keep the
count down on this. The growth is
typically caused by another illness, and
taking antibiotics. You can take
antibiotics to kill these bacteria, but it
also targets and kills your "good"
bacteria. If your c-diff doesn't stay
under control, you can develop clostridium
difficile colitis.
Clostridium difficile colitis is caused by
a large population of c. Difficile
bacteria inside your intestine in colon.
These cells produce 2 toxins, which both
attack your intestine wall. Without
proper care, you can develop ulcers.
Also, in rare cases, it can be deadly.
Symptoms are diarrhea, cramps, and when it
is advanced fever and weakness.
If you do have this issue, see a doctor.
He can prescribe you with antibiotics that
should do the job. If not, theres also
flagyl.
