<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi all! After two & a half months on probiotics plus enzymes & the rest of the protocol we've discussed here before, my son Max was showing little improvement so we proceeded to order the CDSA from Great Smokies. Results show no growth of beneficial bacteria & a 4+ level of bacillus species bacteria, in addition to above normal levels of putrefactive SCFAs & phospholipids, along with meat and vegetable fibers present in the stool. I am aware bacillus species does not always cause problems, but would be very interested to hear from anyone who has had a problem with this type of infection, and what worked to cure the imbalance. We have an appt with the doctor on Friday - we've both always suspected Max's core problem has been an imbalance of bacteria in his gut but the doctor was very leary of prescribing antibiotics when the pediatricians would not agree to it. On the other hand, I think now that we specifically know what we're dealing with, I'm hoping she'll be prepared to go out on a limb, especially if some of you have found it made the difference. At the same time I realize the antibiotics are quite potent & don't take this lightly. Hope this makes sense & thanks for your help - as always!
