Participants will stay at the NIH hospital for 3-5 days. Each day, they will have the following: Physical exam Medical history and medicine review Surveys about CGD and how it affects their life Blood, stool, and urine tests Participants will have a colonoscopy. They will be sedated. A long, flexible tube will be inserted into their rectum. The tube will deliver the FMT material to their colon. Small samples of intestinal tissue will be collected.
