Good luck, should be a breeze.

I'm curious, you said your going to take antibiotics to increase the good flora in your gut? I thought antibiotics depleted all the flora in one's gut? Funny thing is, when i was first diagnosed my GI prescribed antibiotics flagyl and metronidazol and they worked instantiously to stop my attack. For some reason they don't work anymore at all.

I here ya on the not getting stable part. I have been pretty bad for the last 9 months and it seems no matter what i eat or how many probiotics etc. i take nothing works.

Hi, y'all! I'm going Tuesday for a breath test to see if I have H.Pylori. They treated me for it before, but never tested me for it. If it is positive, the GI is going to treat me for it, again. If it is negative, he is going to give me another antibiotic to increase the good flora in my gut.

Should I be nervous about the breath test? You just blow, right?

Happy to be back for a while! Meds aren't doing so hot. Having to switch to another pain med. Lobramax (sp?) I go to pick it up today. Has anyone tried it and had good experience with it?

Hugs!
