I'm a RCA working in a long term extended care facility! I'm healthy, can't remember last time on antibiotics & wound up in ER with wk long diarrhea & abdm cramping! Never remotely thought I'd be tested for C-diff! I couldn't get near my GP so off to ER it was today! I'm getting run around for test results so I'm off work for last 2 days of my,rotation & on RX from ER doc. I'm sooo shocked! My facility has had ALOT of C-diff residents past 6 months but we follow strict protocol & I'm known for over the top hand washing! How the heck did I get this & is it in me for life? If I get really sick later in life, can this crop up??
