I'm on flagyl and thank goodness I'm getting relief!!! NO formed stools or anything but I'm happy with MUCH LESS blood and now I'm able to sleep at night. I still get up to have diarreah but not as bad!!

I ordered papaya leaf extract for my ITP, I have a lot of bruising.

I also ordered sodium buyrate. Will this help bulk up my stool? How do I take it, just what the bottles say do you think?

I tried potato salad, that tore me up! I eat oatmeal (trying to get in resistant starches) but it doesn' seem to help.

Thanks for your help.

Linda

I dont think oatmeal is good for you. Id try chicken soup, well cooked carrot a little peeled organic sweet potato, the only grain is a little rice, preferably white. You could also do beef bone soup with the same veggies. I wouldnt eat much of the meat in each sitting, try to make a big pot of it in that beautiful kitchen of yours. Probably not alot of probiotics for you right now because you are so inflamed. You could add in ultrainflamx as snacks 4 x a day (I know you need some calories)

The butyrate will help soothe the epithelial cells and replace what you have no bacteria to generate on your own. How long is he gonna keep you on the flagyl? It could be the klebsiella you had in your report previously (made virulent by the tyrosine) that I think contributed to all those polyps and the inflammation you have. also the yeast, how is that? is your tongue clear? eczema? rashes? utis?

Thanks for writing. No yeast, rashes or anything like that. My tongue looks good so far. I'm on flagyl for 10 days he has me taking florastor with it. But i can back off maybe to every other day.I just had oatmeal :( I dagree I don't think it was the best for me.

I will try the butyrate and making that soup :) take it with food, how much a day?

I wish I was feeling better. Just blahhh and no energy.

Thank you for writing back :) I wish we all lived close to each other,to get together and all our beautiful minds together and I bet we could put uc into remission for ever!! Thank you for sharing you knowledge
I ordered papaya too for my ITP any thought how to take that?

No, stay with the florastor if you are feeling better. How many consecutive days of the flagyl now?

2 caps with every meal, so 3x a day. if you are eating small meals more times a day, take a cap with each, no more then 3600mg a day.

Read the reviews on amazon or do a web search on the papaya leaf, lots of people reference dosage. Id assume you are gonna wanna take that with food.

I wonder sometimes if I have a shingles virus cuz I think I had shingles in my twenties on my left butt heck. I had chicken pox in 12th grade and develop this rash a few times a cluster of hit blisters that was painful and took like three weeks to go away. I never went to doc embarrassed I showed my mom but she didn't have a clue what it was

Hi path, I'm going the same color and seems like the same kind of diarrheah poo as when I was on all those amino acid, very mucusy and yellow,or green.
Can I start butyrate while on antibiotics ?

I must be detoxing I feel like I have a low fever, headache, flu like symptoms or I'm killing yeast.

Any thought and should I take butyrate now on antibiocs also I have wild Oregeno, take this too for bacteria.

Thank u

zoster usually doesnt cause long term issues, but you can be susceptible to it again, especially on biologics. Its hard to pinpoint what is causing what symptom because the meds can cause issues, so can infections.. so can inflammation

you can start the butyrate on the abx, but if you are only doing 10 days might as well wait.

I dunno about the oregano for you, especially with the flagyl..Id just do what you are doing per the doc and then add in butyrate after.
