Unbelievable! I am about to literally end it all and you're telling me to take a Walk?!
The panic symptons are constant and debilitating, the shaking won't let me hold a cup of coffee, the severe depression won't let me even get dressed. The nausea won't let me eat. I throw up water. My throat is burning and my gut is on fire. All this for more than 10 days already-I can't handle this much longer. I suggest you look on line at how many people feel the same or worse after this evil treatment. How do I get my stomach's biotics back to normal? I've been taking 50 billion pro biotics with no evidence of change.

I am disappointed in so many different ways. I was under the impression I paid to speak to just that kind of specialist. All the above has been done. With today's medical advancements It is sad that I can get more information from fellow sufferers than the entire "retail" medical community. I have been taking 50Billion probiotic 3x day since Dec. 4 with no effect. Actually it got worse. I have never been this sick in my life. Can you at least tell me what dose and which form of acidophilus might be the most beneficial? In fact, so I feel I got something for my hard earned money, can you find out what probiotics might be the most effective at normalizing my gut?

Hi
I understand your concern
Well really sorry I am not able to make up to your expectations.
I guess I am trying to be genuine and want to really help you.
Money really doesn't matter much to me.
You can please ask for refund if you feel like I have no issues.
Also all types of prebiotic are nearly the same, try vsl 3 if available over the counter twice a day one of the best available.
Best wishes.
Your well wisher.
