This gut intestinal bug has affected many people around the world. Being diagnosed with Clostridium difficile can cause harm to a person mentally, physically, and emotional. It can happen to yourself, a friend, as well as a family member. However, there are ways to help. Becoming a donor for Fecal Transplants can help various people beat this infectious disease.
To become a donor you will need to sign up with a registry. These registries are not associated with any particular hospital or clinic. They are registry lists that indicate who are fecal donors. There are certain requirements to becoming a donor such as:
- Between the ages of 18 years old and 50 years old
- Be in good health
- Have a healthy diet consumption
- Stool should be Type 2, Type 3, or Type 4(Refer to the Bristol Stool Chart)
- Complete required questionnaire
Once you have registered, your profile will include your name, your location, and why you chose to become a donor. Individuals infected with C. diff will be able to go through that list and choose the donor of their choice responding through email. Those who become donors can help many people get better as well as earning between $30-$40 a donation.
