Daughter's (9) Story: lurking here for awhile

[tpotter]

FYI: Florastor has lactose in it for those of you who are either lactose intolerant or dairy free. Florastor is a namebrand for sacchromyces boullardi. I get that through Vitamin Shoppe.

Floraster and s boulardii are the same thing? Thanks for that info! I already bought s. boulardii from Kirkman and was planning on starting it today. I emailed my daughter's DAN doctor because I too was under the impression that s. boulardii was good for clostridium. He wrote back that it is a yeast and he didn't think it would be of much help for the clostridium but to go ahead and give it anyway because it will help with the yeast. Like Trg girl, I'm also wondering how much one can give of the s. boulardii. I asked in my email but the dr. didn't answer!

Hi I sent you a private message.

 

I'm sorry. I can't find it. Or was it for someone else?

Hey Melinda!

 

Good to see you get on here!

 

Small world story; back in May when proxy votes were still Kosher, Melinda was going to be away from the internet for the weekend and contacted Kelly to have someone vote for her. I said I would do it and Kelly gave me the phone number to which I raised a hairy eyebrow and said "that's my area code!" Well, it turns out we live 15 minutes from each other!!!

 

We just got back from our Chicago trip and I'll try and give you a call over the weekend.
