I was turned on to this probiotic supplement... a woman in the store told me it was good for us celiacs. she meets with dietitians one a week at a celiac meeting.

so I when to the pharmacy to ask the pharmacist about this.. he said it would be good for me. it promotes good bacteria in the intestines.. so I've been on it for 4days nows.. taking two capsules a day.. I have had less pain.. and my bowels.. well put it this way.. my movements are non stressful and how do you say...it's a proud moment. :lol: I was wondering if anyone else has had these probiotic.. they are very expensive I paid 83.00 for bottle they have to be refrigerated. All I can say is it's been very beneficial for me....

I think many of us take probiotics, or have done so for a period in order to get gut bacteria to where they should be.

What brand are you taking? $83 is very expensive.

$83 bucks, wow that's a pricey probiotic. What is the name of the probiotic you are taking? I also think they are a good product but I think I never paid $83 bucks.

i take a multitude and don't feel quite the same effect they had when i first started with just one. is it possible to take too many? should i switch brands here and there? i wonder if they are just helping the bacteria start other problems i'll say or contributing to bad bacteria or whatever am i overwhelimg my gut with them. it seemed if i gobbled more it had a positive effect. now i can take like 10 pills at once and not even feel. (a variety of two kinds and pau d'arco)

Scotty I think you may have taken too much of a good thing. You do not need to take them indefinately. My herbalist had me on one type for 4 months (just one pill a day, although the bottle recommended 3 ) Then we switched to a different probiotic bacteria in the same brand of probiotics and I take 1 pill a day and it has been 2 months.

I take a great dairy free and gluten free probitic that costs under 30 dollars. It's made by Vinco's.

      probably not your situation @Mimiof2, but allow me to add one more to @trents list of celiac-mimics: "olmesartan-induced sprue-like enteropathy"

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.

      I had MRI scan a few years ago showing everything normal, and now it's no longer triggering the nerve pain when I bow my head today - it only seemed to happen yesterday, and that was the only time it happened! Just seemed weird as no movement has caused my usual nerve pain before. It's normally just random.
