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:

      6 week challenge; How much gluten?

      Thank you everyone for your answers, they were all very helpful, and some very useful links. I am rethinking the value of having the biopsy as I’m not sure it will give any actual benefits.

      There is also something called "seronegative celiac disease" in which there is damage to the villous lining of the small bowel but no celiac antibodies are produced by the immune system. It's not very common and there can be numerous causes including infections, some medications and even some nongluten foods.  If you have dermatitis herpetiformis, that is proof positive you have celiac disease since there is no other known cause for it. If you get it biopsied during an outbreak it can be used to establish a diagnosis of celiac disease, therefore. But not every dermatologist knows how to biopsy dermatitis herpetiformis correctly and it can be difficult to get an appointment with one on short notice.

      Ty very helpful I’m in the process of getting in with a new gI doctor and will ask more about all that then and yes the rash is exactly like that. I have a half cousin with celiac but that’s it in my whole family and idk if that matters as I see it is hereditary and others say the the only in the family with it. Either way this was very much appreciated ty again.
