Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I don't know about Flagyl and SCD but I figured I would give my experience with that particular drug since I read a lot of responses saying how bad it was. I'm not saying that it won't affect you but I know that I didn't suffer any ill effects when I took it and it definitely helped (for massive massive UC flare/hospitalization/etc). Stacey > > Saw a doc today for a treatment called Scenar. In reviewing my history she stated that I may be suffering from these symptoms due to a severe intestinal infection, perhaps Giardia, that I had in West Africa many years ago. She said that the bacterium could have survived in the appendix and started overpopulating the gut after my first pregnancy. If the Skenar treatment doesn't yield the expected results, she suggests I try course of Flagyl (antibiotic) to > treat the infection. She said it wouldn't kill off L. acidophilus in the GI tract because it targets gram-negative bacteria. > > Any experiences with Flagyl or combining Flagyl with SCD? > > Thanks, > Lilian > " IBS " -C 10+ years, SCD 3 1/2 months > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
