  1. Also, I looked up your blastocysts. One treatment is Nitazoxanide. That is same medication I was given for my crypto!! 3 days worth of pills was all it took! No antibiotics. Strong antibiotics can also cause C-Diff.
  2. I certainly hope treating the parasite helps!!! Definitely do the scopes though, and have them biopsy small intestine to check for villi damage! You may need a steroid and modified diet to help heal if there is any damage!!!! I found out a few weeks ago that eating out is a scary option for me!

  7. I’m 46. Mayo has not scheduled a follow up biopsy. When dismissed, they said plans are to do another one in a year. The stools are a little better today. I am so close to being done with my TPN that I just worry about a set back! Thank you everyone for your helpful reply’s.
  8. Hello! I was placed on TPN in June due to near total villi blunting. After 2 months of TPN and only ice chips for dry mouth, I was reintroduced to food and drink. For the past month my TPN has been tapered and all was well following gluten free diet. This was to be my last week of TPN. 2 days ago, I developed loose stools again. Is it possible that the...
