I only use VSL3, i've tried many others but they're just not good enough for my very sensitive gut. You may also want to add some saccharomyces b.

Thanks Sarah and MacKintosh, I am going to use your links to order. Currently, I am taking Doxycycline and Azithromycin. Is it a good combination or should I change azithromycin to Roxithromycin? I should start Metronidazole or tinidazole soon? Which one is better? I am on abx for three months now....

At first, it seems contradictory to me. Is there any probiotics that someone can advice to take with the abx?...

http://www.iadvocatehealth.org/protozoal_infection0.aspx Thanks for posting this link. I've been following Dr Fry's suggestions for the past few months and fund them helpful. I'm not one of his patients. I just treat myself. I started a couple of years ago with the standard Wheldon protocol and mad...
