I am not going to shut up. The Drs. that we see at the time do not advise
the eating of any dairy whatever the case may be to counteract an
antibiotic. There just isn't enough of good stuff in there for it to work.
They have us take high doses of probiotics then. I was taking it three
times a day while in the hospital.

My family doesn't drink much milk at all which is why I buy it that way. My
husband will drink it if I have baked goods and that would be not often.
And once in a while they'll have a bowl of cereal. Believe me, drinking
milk or eating any dairy would only add to my intestinal problems. My
current intestinal ailments have only to do with my gastroparesis. That is
caused by diabetes. I am very careful not to eat anything that might make
me sick.
