Something you say does not make sense. It is impossible to not have any good bacteria.

Was this test done by a conventional doctor or a naturopathic/alternative medicine doctor? What kind of test was it? A blood or stool test? The reason I ask is there are no known test to check if you do or don't have good bacteria as there are over 1500+ different kinds of bacteria in the colon. And to date only about 500 or so are known. Something doesn't make sense. There is a breath test of small intestine bacteria overgrowth but it is not very accurate. Presumably this was not the test you had.
