Patient is a 55yo woman with h/o ESRD on HD and peritoneal dialysis who presented with watery, non bloody diarrhea and weakness. She has a history of 2 prior C diff infections, the most recent just 1 month ago. Recent antibx use in the last month on prior admission.

Pt was initially admitted to the ICU and was septic on pressors (levophed) until the morning of [**8-26**] with leukocytosis but no fever.

IC difficulties will be self-reported based on questions from the self-control questionnaire (Tangney, Baumeister, & Boone, 2004) modified to be specific to alcohol, tobacco, and energy-dense food intake (e.g., "I am self-indulgent with unhealthy food at times", "I refuse alcohol when offered") using a 4-point Likert-style scale Individuals over age 55 will be excluded because of established functional and structural neural changes that begin to escalate at that time (Good, Johnsrude, Ashburner, Henson, Friston, & Frackowiak, 2001; Grady, Springer, Hongwanishkul, McIntosh, & Winocur, 2006) Given the high rates of morbidity for such disorders among people with high EA, we will not based on past diagnoses for any of those disorders or based on current drug and alcohol use. However, we will individuals who do not pass a urine toxicology screen during either of the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) sessions to ensure that the neuroimaging data are as homogeneous and reliable as possible Participants who cannot undergo an MRI scan will be excluded; contraindications metal implants (e.g., braces, pins) or metal fragments, pacemakers or other electronic medical implants, claustrophobia, pregnancy, and weight greater than 550 lbs. Beyond these participants will be recruited without exclusions based on gender, race, or ethnicity, so our sample will reflect the diversity in the local population (Lane County, Oregon) with regard to gender, race, and ethnicity

She has a history of 2 prior C diff infections, the most recent just 1 month ago. Recent antibx use in the last month on prior admission. Was also txd for Cdiff at that time for 14 d. course with po vanco. Pt was initially admitted to the ICU and was septic on pressors (levophed) until the morning of [**8-26**] with leukocytosis but no fever. C diff assay positive on admission, and pt had leukocytosis consistent with C diff. Patient was placed on Vanco po, Flagyl IV and Flagyl po initially, and when patient improved she was transitioned to Vanco oral and Flagyl oral on [**8-29**]. Patient was treated with Vanco for an extended course of 6 weeks given her recurrent C diff. Pt was also encouraged to take probiotics and to bleach her home when she was discharged.
