NLF E Coli in CDSA Results?

[Guest guest]

NLF= Non Lactose Fernenting but I don;t know what that means. I got mine CDSA from Great Smokies and there was lots of info to explain the results. Does it say anything at all. I think its associated with squits???

Sorry not more help

The test results show NLF E. coli (2+) in the Bacteriology Culture (Disbiotic flora). Can anyone give quick feedback on what this means?

We have just received one of our son's test results (Drs Data, Comprehensive Stool Analysis/Parasitology x 1) at Dr Heard's recommendation. (We were long overdue on doing one of these). The test results show NLF E. coli (2+) in the Bacteriology Culture (Disbiotic flora). Can anyone give quick feedback on what this means? I will be contacting Dr Heard for a follow up consultation, but am awaiting the OAT test results, so that I can go back to him with both results. I was concerned to see E. coli mentioned, however, so as I wait, I wondered if anyone could give any informal feedback Any comments welcome! Following earlier posts, my first impressions of Dr Heard were very good. He is well informed and seems to be helping parents make informed choices.

Hi Pamela,

I am not sure of the significance of the value, but we all have E Coli

in our system except new borns- There is generally no bp with even

elevated levels; however some rare strains produce some

enterotoxins and there could be as a consequence dysentery, with

acute loss of fluids through diarrhea- Something that cannot be

missed.

But please let us know what Dr Heard said.
