Anybody else have reactions from taking probiotics?

I know I need them because from everything I've researched, it seems like my dermatitis herpetiformis is exacerbated by fungal overgrowth. I have been taking Dapsone for the past decade or so and multiple other antibiotics before that. However, every time I try to add probiotics to my regimen, I have extreme reactions very quickly. Maybe this is is from fungal resistance or die-off, but it's usually so bad that I can't continue and get through the breakout period. Any suggestions?

This article is a bit older, but probably still relevant. Be sure that any medications or supplements you take are gluten-free:

Wow! I didn't realize that. I've tried various brands and I seem to get a reaction every time, although sometimes with a delayed onset. Can you recommend any brands??

I think this brand has been mentioned here by others:

Here is an article that shows positive GI effects in celiacs from probiotic use:

      Is McDonald's Safe for Gluten-Free Orders?

      By Patrick-Tyler · Posted

      Hai Community, I have doubt on  McDonald's? even it is dedicated to fryers and added gluten-free buns, I’d still be nervous about ordering there for my daughter who has celiac. Anyone else feel uneasy about trusting fast food places with cross-contamination? Would love to hear if anyone’s had good (or bad) experiences with gluten-free options at McDonald's or other fast-food restaurants. Thank You...

      Is the gluten challenge worth it with what I’ve got going on here?

      By Nogluten4thisgirl · Posted

      I got my dna test back and here are the results:  HLA-DQA1, ALLELE 1 Value 01:02 HLA-DQA1, ALLELE 2 Value 02:01 HLA-DQB1, ALLELE 1 Value 02:02 HLA-DQB1, ALLELE 2 Value 06:02 I had a CT scan, which nothing was found except for a large bowel fecal mass, which doesn’t surprise me because I get super constipated and my GI track doesn’t seem to push anything out.  Stuff just sits in my rectum hanging there…  My blood labs for celiac were negative, but I’ve also been gluten-free since May 2024. Here are my symptoms and why I was getting tested for gluten intolerance or celiac:  Chronic constipation, bowel not active, brain fog, language issues, finding my words, memory issues, brain feels like it’s on fire sometimes, adhd, depression, anxiety, dry mouth, mouth sores, skin lesions/sores that went away with gluten-free diet, dry eyes, joint pain and cracking, chronic fatigue (debilitating physical fatigue- not wanting to move anywhere), graphical tongue, breast tenderness, vitamin B12 and D deficiencies (while not on gluten-free diet), gas that would clear a room, leg and ankle feel like they are heavy or retaining water/painful when walking, acne, brittle nails, night sweats and horrible heart palpitations My GI doc said to do the gluten challenge, but honestly, I’m scared to go through it.  Many of these symptoms have cleared up after gluten-free.  Most noticeable is joint cracking has gone way down, mouth is not as chronically dry, my fatigue is better, graphic tongue is gone (I’ve had this my whole entire life!), vitamin levels are stabilizing, no more horrible smelly gas, my cuticles look much better.   I’m just not sure if it’s worth the true diagnosis and going through it all.   Thoughts???

      Anybody else have a similar experience...theories welcome as its something which i dont really understand.....

      No, I don't know of anyone in particular. But if you are consuming gluten regularly, it would be a great time to get antibody testing done for celiac disease. Many celiacs are of the "silent" type. That is, even though slow damage is being done to the lining of their small bowel, they are largely asymptomatic and remain that way sometimes for years until the damage becomes severe enough. Just a thought.

      Yes its quite possible that my condition wasnt coeliacs but something similar as had the classic symptoms but also more intolerances than just gluten. I have read that it is possible to become intolerant to more and more different types of food if you keep eating what you are intolerant to, not sure if that applied to gluten and coeliacs or not as it is a while ago i read that. Do you know of people who have been in remission for 18 months or longer?

      I’ve had on and off swelling of a salivary gland below my jaw - sialoadenitis.  It was very visible when it swelled though.
