Guest guest Posted September 5, 2003 Report Share Posted September 5, 2003 Hi Everyone, Shaelin had his first visit with gastroenterology today and the visit went well. I started him on Probiotics two weeks ago when his Augmentin started and his stools are more formed now than they have ever been. The Gastro MD's are very pro these supplements and felt that Shaelin could have been harboring c-diff for a while which is why his stools have never been formed despite increases in his enzymes. He is currently on Pancreacarb MS-8, 4 with meals and 2 with snacks. His weight today was 31 lbs, >50%. They are testing him for celiac disease and took a stool sample for culture, O & P and fecal fat but hopefully the probiotics have done the trick. He currenly takes Flora Bears which are made for young children and are chewable. I'll keep you posted as to whether they continue to work.
