And you thought it was just to keep the common cold away!
It is disgusting and most likely to be caught in the hospital by someone who has been on antibiotics too long. It messes with your GI tract, resulting in severe diarrhea and if left untreated, pseudomembranous colitis can result in . . .
death from dehydration.

The first treatment is to discontinue the antibiotics that are aiding in the killing of your good bacteria. The second is to take a special medication to kill the pseudomembranous colitis.
Wanna know what you gotta do if that doesn't work?

POOP TRANSPLANT
So do you want to know what a poop transplant has to do with my first question about nasogastral tubes?
Put the two parts together.
(Naso)+(Gastral)= a tube in your nose which takes someone else's poop into your GI tract.
A Poop Transplant.
ew. I think I'd rather die of dehydration.

I have heard about this. Disgusting but effective nonetheless.
My kids all are sick with the runs this week. Lets hope we don't need to do a poop transplant.
Jeremy had the nastiest runs I've ever seen yesterday at the Kirtland Temple. I won't describe it here, but needless to say he went through the rest of our days activities sans shorts, socks, or shoes. I almost just took him home instead of continuing and if Nathan hadn't needed the house quiet so he could study, I would have.
Hope your kids get better soon and I hope no transplants are needed :)

GROSS!
Hilarious.... but GROSS!!!!
Oh, yuck! The worse my husband does is make fun of my grammer.... but it sounds like you have the makings of a great diet plan with that system :)
nasty! I pray I never need a poop transplant!
icky. who knew that such a thing was possible.
Exactly. Who could have thought to not only do a poop transplant, but to do it through the nose? In the words of the great Squints Paladoris, "If you were thinkin' you wouldn't have thought that."
