In what way were you sicker? I hear that enterococcus faecalis is opportunistic with burns. I took threelac for about 6 months and started getting horrible urinary pain about 3 months in after using garlic suppositories for too long and burning myself. (You don't want to burn yourself there, by the way.) I can't seem to shake it and I'm wondering if the ef in the threelac is causing some trouble there. Of course, the doctor would have found white cells in my urine if it was an EF issue, right?
