What do you all know about probiotics? [View all]
I went to the drs today. Still testing positive for COVID after a 5 day course of Paxlovid. It's day 12 for me from a my first positive test. They said I have good chest sounds, good oxygenation, and no fever. They think I have an acute sinus infection on top of everything and prescribed a 10-day course of both Doxycycline and Cefpodoxime - 2 strong antibiotics. Dr. suggested that I take a good probiotic of my choice during treatment and at least a few weeks afterward to protect my gut health. Said she couldn't really recommend one since everyone is individual and they're OTC. She thinks I should turn around in 72 hrs. If not, come back in and they'll talk other testing and possible chest x-ray. She didn''t want to order one of those now since I've had so much radiation over the last year w/ cancer treatment and testing.
Anyway....know anything about probiotics? Figure I'd ask what I should look for and do some research before heading out to either the drug store or the Co-Op/Natural Foods store.
