Re: The healing process?

The CDSA is back and C dif. , giardia, entamoeba histolytica, and Cryptosporidium are all negative.

The real problem lies here.
Lactobacillus species = very good (i've been taking lactobacillus around 80billion a day for awhile)
Escherichia Coli = None given (very very low)
Bifidobacterium = None given (very very low)

Potential Pathogens
--> Citrobacter Freundii = very high
--> Enterobacter cloacae = very high.
And 3 other non pathogenic additional bacteria are very high.

So given the low beneficial flora and high bad flora the doc is trying option 1
--> Megadose the low flora to bring it up and control bad flora
--> option 2 is use the Tetracycline or timethroprim (both effective in my case) while supporting good flora

So option 1 now consists of

Bifo Viden ID --> 2-4 caps a day
Lactoflam x (special lactobacillus effective for diarrhea) --> 2 caps a day
VSL #3 capsules --> 1 per each loose bowel movement.

Here are the profiles of the 3 supplements

Bifo-viden ID

A proprietary blend of:
15 billion live organisms††


Bifidobacterium lactis BI-07
Bifidobacterium lactis BI-01
Streptococcus thermophilus St-21


Lactoflam X

Lactobacillus 18 billion
(Lactobacillus Plantarum)
299v Strain


VSL #3 Capsules

Each 2 capsule serving contains 225 billion live probiotic bacteria. Ingredients: VSL#3 Capsules contain one strain of streptococcus thermophilus, three strains of bifidobacterium and four strains of lactobacillus in defined ratios.


Please let me know what you think. If no improvement is seen in 1 week we will likely test again for C diff with a stool sample or colonoscopy.
