Question: I was dx with diverticulitis 3 years ago, had colonoscopy 2 years ago, found and removed a small well differentiated neuroendocrine tumour in rectum. had sygmoiscopy 6 months later and another one last spring. All good. Was dx with div again 4 weeks ago, cipro and flagyl, pain gone quickly but have had diarreha (not all liquid, more soft stools) since. some days I can go up to 10X, some days I think it's getting better. I have no other symptoms, no fever, bp normal, not loosing weight, good appetite, drinking lots of water. I cannot get into my doctor until thursday coming. My stools have some heavy mucous and a little bit of red blood (not much). Yesterday I developed a slight discomfort on the right side of my pelvic, it;s a sharp little pain and still there this morning. No pain anywhere on abdomen on palpation. My stools where semiformed this morning, but second time I went, they looked a different colour, paler, I thought clay like but this is the first time and wonder if it's diet related. had steak and a chick pea salad last night, stools look very fatty. I have no nausea, no fever, no other issues. I have pictures of some stools with mucous.
Could it be C-difficile? or candida? Can I wait until Thursday for appt or should I go to hospital?

Did you have a look at the pale green stool? the last one I had seemed a bit better. Is this pale green a result of C-diff??

I had less bowel movement today ( only 3)

If I had C-Diff, is it possible that the symptoms could go away on their own or should I get antibiotics?

I will bring stool sample with me to the doctor.

My doctor recommended I wait some more to see if I continue to improved. She doesn't think antibiotics are necessary just yet.
I am having less stool movement now, 3 to 4 a day and are getting more formed but still lots of mucous and some blood attached to mucous. Just a little bit of discomfort in pelvic area. No fever, no cramping. No pain when palpating abdomen.
Is it possible it will go away on it's own?
