Hello Kim,

Hope you had a good week. By the way if you are looking for the 8

lbs that you lost they are in my butt, :-)

I have been busier than usual, I do not know how that can be

possible, but it is. We just open a new office and I am the

principle broker, I told my partners I will do it until May, just to

launch the office but after that I just want to be a regular broker

associate.

At any rate, I did miss the post from and you, I was dealing

with the infamous SOBIG virus, but I found it. a is doing much

better, I kept her home all week. We went to see Dr. Hanissian and

she is doing Cipro, Zithromax, Vitamin K, on top of everything else,

plus Lema Oil. While at the pharmacy, I spoke to the pharmacist,

nicest woman, since the probiotics topic has been going around, I

asked her what she would recommend. She said to buy milk with

acidophilus and bifium and also gave me some chewables tablets, BD

Lactinex. BD Lactinex, says on the bottle, is lactobacillus and

needs to be kept refrigerated, chew a couple of tablets 3 times a day

with milk.

a doesn't have any milk intolarance on the contrary she loves

just plain white milk so I think that's going to work really well.

She hates yogurt with passion.

Well, I would like your opinion about the milk and the lactinex. Do

you think that will keep some of the good flora going in her

intestines? Doctors, no matter how brilliant they may be, they will

not tell you this things. I know if I take any antibiotic and I do

not eat yogurt, invariably, I end up with a yeast infection.

Well, I wish you a good weekend.

Thanks,
