I was diagnosed and treated for cancer. As part of my treatment, I had lots of antibiotics....then C. diff. After the fecal microbial transplant, I improved! I could sleep again (after getting up to have constant diarrhea every 15-30 minutes during the course of C. diff). I am so grateful to Dr. Khoruts and his team for giving my life back to me!

After suffering from recurrent Diverticulitis attacks for seven years, I became very sick with recurrent C. difficile Infections. For a season, I could only eat rice, eggs and potato chips. Finally, I found Dr. Khoruts at the University of Minnesota and ultimately received a Fecal Microbiota Transplant. I now have no pain, no diverticulitis attacks, and can eat pretty much anything I want. Thank you!

After being seriously ill with C. difficile for over two years, I finally found help with Dr. Alex Khoruts at the University of Minnesota. I received a transplant and within only a few days, I was feeling 100%! Seven years later, I remain healthy and very grateful to Dr. Khoruts, his team and this lifesaving treatment!

I had a positive experience receiving FMT as part of a clinical trial for Crohn's Disease and am working towards total remission.

Now a Physician Assistant working with C. difficile patients at the University of Minnesota, Emma's personal battle with recurrent C. difficile infections after the birth of her second child changed her career coarse and has given her first hand experience she is using to improve patient treatment.

From birth, our son suffered from chronic constipation, acid reflux, and food sensitivities despite being exclusively breastfed for one year(and myself going through an elimination while nursing).

I have literally changed my whole life to try to cure my disease, to no avail. In summary, despite having the best available treatments and medical attention at UCSD, nothing has worked prior to FMT.
