Re: VSL probiotic

[Guest guest]

My email was down for awhile. so, I'm really behind in reading these.

I just wanted to say that my daughter's ped. GI doc also prescribed this probiotic. Showed it to the nutritionist and it was not one my daughter should take. Very hard to trust the GI doc ever since he felt that 's pains were all in her head and when I questioned the GF diet, he said it's a very healthy diet, etc.

Well, I knew her pains weren't all in her head and we pursued it further and was led to the nutritionist who helped out.

Kim,I don't handle stress well, either. Is the testing for tax work? Or real estate?You realize, of course, that even though he's not conscious of the stress, working a full-time job and going to school can be enough to throw anyone's system off. He's been feeling so good, compared to what he had before that he's not paying attention.At least he went to the PCP! And the suggestion is not the full-blown colonoscopy! That's a plus.The other suggestions -- the yogurt, the acidophilus, the s. boulardii are also great. You, of all people, know the steps to take in a situation like this -- and with seven years' experience, you know it's not the end of the world. It's just that you thought you had the Crohn's licked and here it is rearing its ugly head again. That's scary and frustrating, too.And just think -- though looking for a GI is not fun... he's been doing so well these last years that he doesn't

have a regular GI!So now you start researching fistulas....We're thinking of you and , both.
