Factoids
2011 Radical Cystectomy Ileal Conduit
Age 68 F
No UTI infections for 9 years
12/20/20 after intermittent fasting and Keto Light for 7 months, lost abdominal fat and hernia grew and shifted. Tests reveal everything is functioning correctly with no pain.
12/20/20 - 1/20/22 various antibiotics to fight infecting gram-negative bugs failed and bugs repopulated after 2 weeks of stopping antibiotics.
Four ER visits, five days IV antibiotic hospital stay.
Urology referred me to an infectious disease specialist and advised there's nothing he can do except further corrective surgery which would present more dangers. Symptoms do not indicate anything that can be addressed by the specialists.
Cost over 75k.
Disabled because of symptoms that make being a reliable employee impossible. I need to work and bring in a small income to augment SS.

What I'm Doing
Tons of Pre/Probiotics and supplements
Mild exercise with tightly secured hernia band for support.
Biofilm investigating research about how bacteria reinfects ureters, stoma, etc.

7 AM 1/4 tsp of baking soda in water on an empty stomach... increased urine pH 9 said to assist the immune system in countering growth.
QUESTION
How can an ostomate strengthen our immune system to fight back against these gram-negative mucus-embedded bugs and not eventually acquire C Diff?
