I'm so sorry your DH has C. Diff. I had a mild case after my surgery and was on antibiotics for a while. Then, about 10 days after stopping the antibiotics, I got it again but it was severe. I was readmitted to the hospital for a week. While in the hospital, a team of infectious disease doctors came to see me. They told me to start taking probiotics in the form of kefir or buttermilk or yogurt. I did some reading online about it and a few studies. I started with yogurt with every meal in the hospital, if I could eat as I had no appetite at all. Again, read up on it and see if you can find some probiotic your husband will like.
I will say some prayers for him as it is pretty miserable and in some cases difficult to treat.
