“Stomach flu”
I am still experiencing diareah and constipationafter 14 days.
I was going to do an enema which I have done before. I learned how to do this from a colon therapist where I had colonies. I want to know if a probiotic gelatin capsil will dissolve if put in the rectum and will it have the same positive affects that it would taken orally.i have done this before but not sure how affective it is. I seem to be bothered by taking the probiotic orally. Thank you Sandra

I am not sure why you have diarrhea alternating with constipation and the duration for this. I would try to eat a balanced diet with oatmeal, fruits and vegetables even out these symptoms. I would not put any probiotics in to your rectum, avoid enemas. If you have constipaton, miralax has worked for some patients. If you have diarrhea, taking in bananas, rice, oatmeal may help control. Avoid all concentrated sweets: candy cake cookies pies and pastries as these can reak havoc on your gut with the high sugar content.
