Hi,

My GI doctor suggested I try VSL #3 Probiotic for alternating constipation and increased bowel frequency and nausea. It is a really potent probiotic, so I am a little worried about how I will tolerate it. I believe that my GI problems are just a result of autonomic dysfunction, but at this point I feel like I should at least try the probiotic since the GI doctor doesn't have much else to offer besides Miralax, Immodium, and oral Zofran.

Does anyone have any experience with VSL #3?

Thank you, Broken_Shell
