    It's a strain of C. Diff. I've had a lovely time with it.
    The Vancomycin is in its 4th week of taper treatment since the first round failed to work. So 2 weeks of using it to no avail on the 1st try. Now it's the 4th week of the second try. Then on the first I take MATCH pills. It's still in trials, but I'm optimistic about it.
    The Vancomycin makes you feel worse than the C Diff...

    It's been a shltty year. Literally.

    That's what M.A.T.C.H. is, except in large pill form.

    Edit to add: here is a link to clinical trials:
    https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03005379

    I should've called it FMT, but I just call it match because I don't know if it's really the FMT or not.
