A member asked:

C diff treated with metronidazole almost three months ago. is it normal to still have watery stools multiple times a day after this length of time ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

C diff: I highly suggest that you get the stool retested. Continued watery stools suggest that either the c diff was not fully treated or there is something else going on like colitis. Hope that helps.
