Probiotics Effects

I am on the 3rd day taking Probiotics. I have recently started a nut free, dairy/milk free, and of course for the past 9months gluten free diet. Started the probiotics due to bloating, nauseau and gas associated w/ the dairy. I have become even more bloated (didn't know it was possible) I am now constipated 2 1/2 days which is constipated for me. And gassy but really not even able to get it out. I feel like my stomach or intestines are actually "working" down there as there is movement and hard to discribe but movement. Anyone want to tell me any similar symptoms or what they went through in the beginning? Or did it get better?

Thank you,

Jody

I did not do well with Probiotics. I remember that I felt nauseated and stopped them after only a few days.

If they don't work for you, try some yogurt which also has the "good" bacteria.

I tried yogart but that and cheese and sour cream, butter, milk, cottage cheese, all the dairy has been making me ill. So yogart is not a good thing for me right now. Soon I hope but like i mentioned I am going dairy free and nut free for a while and see what is going on. Thank you for your response though! Always appreciated!

Don't probiotics come from dairy? I just picked some up yesterday and started taking them, myself. I would think that if probiotics do have dairy in them and you don't do well on dairy, that these probiotics would be a problem for you. Then again, I don't know a whole lot about probiotics.

I don't know how long you have been gluten-free, but you might be able to handle dairy at some future time. You could then try the probiotics again some other time when your gut has healed.

Hi,

Are you taking the probiotics in capsule form or are you taking the little drink versions?

I took the little drink things and didn't have any problems with constipation, however I think that they contain dairy.

You could try going off them for a few days to see if your symptoms are relieved, this would at least confirm that the two things are related. If your symptoms are relieved when you stop taking them, you could try reducing the amount you are taking. Maybe take them once a week at first and increasing the amount slowly.

Good Luck

Probiotics balance the good and the bad bacteria in our guts. They can also be gotten from fermented foods like saurkraut. My naturopath told me to eat that instead of yogurt since I can't do dairy or soy. If you are feeling worse on the pills I would drop them.

Probiotics gave me a noticeable difference after being on them for over a week. The first week was TERRIBLE, but then my body evened out.

I'd say give them a chance, but stay on it for a month.

So much for easy fixes, huh? ;)

      @Jmartes71, Have you tried a naturopathic or holistic doctor? Some posters in the past have commented theirs were more helpful than mainstream doctors.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      @HectorConvector, Have you tried taking 500 mg of the Thiamine Mononitrate that you have left? Thiamine Mononitrate may not be as helpful as other forms of thiamine, but since that's what you have on hand. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even at high doses needed to correct thiamine deficiency. No harm in trying it. Neuroplastic...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      So I've been eatin no carbs in the evening and only a bit for my lunch so a big reduction. Well, made no difference, in fact it's actually got even worse. So everything I do makes it get worse.

      @HectorConvector,  Have you tried taking 500 mg of the Thiamine Mononitrate that you have left?   Thiamine Mononitrate may not be as helpful as other forms of thiamine, but since that's what you have on hand.    Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even at high doses needed to correct thiamine deficiency.   No harm in trying it. Neuroplastic changes in the brain may be caused by thiamine deficiency.   These changes can be seen in Wernicke's encephalopathy and Korsakoff's syndrome, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. I googled "Neuroplastic Sensitization syndrome and thiamine pubmed" and see for yourself what it says.   Try taking 500 mg Thiamine Mononitrate and look for health changes.

I went through the entire history of this condition from its onset in 2010 or so, including the things that flare it up, and the timeline of what made it worse, the medications that worked and didn't, in ChatGPT (rolleyes I know lol)  and supplied it with all the clinical evidence I've had from tests etc.... After hours of "discussing" with it and finding research it "concluded" it's a chronic neuroplastic sensitization syndrome but of course said I should only get a proper diagnosis from a  doctor. When I saw the doctor on 9th February because this got worse he looked through all my medical history and the course of the "condition". I didn't tell him I'd used ChatGPT or mention what I thought it is because I still don't really know until I have a formal diagnosis. He came with the same conclusion as ChatGPT. Just thought it was an interesting co-incidence perhaps. As for myself, I'm not forming any conclusions til I can really know exactly what's happening and why and what stops it. Only then can I truly know.

I said this to the doctor. He said he definitely thinks it's a neuroplastic pain condition where I've sensitized my nerves to max volume and now the pain has outgrown the medication max dose even though there is nothing physically wrong with my body. A bit earlier I had violent shocking evil burning nerve pain that made me nearly pass out and want to die again, also noticed this seems to be associated with sudden water retention. I've made hardly any pee in nearly 12 hours and despite drinking loads. Mouth is super dry. I am getting the "correct" sort of this when I've finished the current ones, so not long now. Can only get it on the internet here. Then I can say how it might change anything.
