I'm currently taking Florastor (saccharomyces boulardii), Proscript Assist (soiled based), Align (B. infantis 35624), and anything else I can find that have different strains of probiotics. I'm also planning on ordering a Butyrate probiotic which I believe comes from Japan and works on short chain fatty acids. This is one that Ken Lassesen recommends and I'm still in the process of researching it.Probiotics release strong antibiotic substances. These substances are called bacteriocine. Taking probiotics could help you to avoid strong antibiotics.
Very much synthetic produces antibiotics are recreated to bacteriocines.
@TigerLilea I also wish you the best. For antibiotic diarrhea saccharomyces boulardii could help, because abx diarrhoe ist sometimes caused by clostridium difficile.
The diarrhea has long since cleared up but the excruciating exhaustion and headache have not gotten any better in the past three and a half months since this happened. I'm also finding now that my PEM is much worse and takes a lot longer to recover from. I'm also experiencing much more muscle pain than I ever have before. I had a friend go through a similar situation from antibiotics and it took her three years to recover.
