On antibiotics 2 weeks, soft mushy stools, told it can happen. just now noticing stronger odor. have appt- does an odor always mean c-diff? scared

Please get lab test: C diff doesn't always have an odor, but your symptoms are concerning. I'm curious what antibiotic you have been on and why. It is important to get stool testing for C Dif and treatment immediately. Please contact the Doctor Who gave you the antibiotics.
