What Does This Stool Test Result Indicate While Treating For Candida?

I had recently been advised I have Candida and this was being treated with Candisol. My stool test from Bioscreen has come back with Aerobe: Anaerobe Ratio - High. Faecal Aerobes Enterococus sp: Overgrowth Klebsiella sp: Overgrowth Total Aerobic Flora: Overgrowth & E.Coli: Undetected. I am currently taking a probiotic of a night. Is there anything else you would suggest to get rid of this from my system?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
dear patient. the above species of bacteria are normally present in the gut.you need not worry to get rid of them .Dont focus on the word overgrowth. this overgrowth is not present in your gut. these are laboratory values for lab personnel.it doesnt mean that you are infected.When you are infected you will have high fever and severe loose motions.
take the probiotic regularly.Take yoghurt a cup everyday without fail.
hope that answers the question.
good luck and good health
