10 C Diff Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #6: Weight Loss
People will experience fluctuations in weight as they live their lives. People will often lose weight due to their metabolism. Other people will lose weight as a result of changes in their lifestyle choices. Sometimes, though, weight loss can be down to being ill.
C. diff will cause diarrhea and this can decrease the nutrition that the patient is able to absorb from their food. What’s more is that patients with a C. diff infection are also likely to be experiencing a loss of appetite. Bear in mind that while a lot of people will want to lose weight, it is never a good idea to lose it too quickly.
