Guest guest Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 > Ok someone said maybe try Boulardii. Barney is having his and everyone else's share of gas, lol. There is a site called netnutri.com and it says saccharomyces boulardii 12.00 for say 16 caps. Please would you mind telling me what site you trust. and what to expect. You take these for just a wk or so is that it. and dye off happens . > Also, he has a dr.s appt. next tues. I have read many of you try ldn. > should I ask the dr. about this med? This dr. is at a county clinic (Barney only has insurance through that) it's Parkland. so, I can't hold out much hope the dr. would give it. The dr. does make his own yougurt and knows we follow the scd. Also, you might tell the doctor you suspect that Barney may have an overgrowth of yeast from taking prednisone, because yeast tends to overgrow while taking steroids when people have compromised guts and immune systems. And he can prescribe either nystatin or diflucan, which are both prescription anti-yeast protocols. They, too, will cause die off and be uncomfortable. but they do help. For myself, I found that after that treatment was over, I took the s. boulardii and that had got rid of the problem for me. For others, with more endemic yeast, this may not be enough.
