   Hi – I am curious as to why you obtained Breath and Stool tests from 2 different laboratories?
   Is this common practice?

     Good question Julie. I wouldn’t say it’s common practice. I have been doing this for a while with two motivations
     1. ensure no finding was missed
     2. compare different lab
     I do this much less now, and you will see this in the coming case studies.

   What made you start with all three categories of probiotics at once?

     I usually do, unless someone has a history of reactivity. Then I use one at a time.

   Is it odd that the CDSA showed a number of pathogens, but the MEB’s in the chemistry look good?

     I wish I could say things typically correlate in a way one would expect. However, I have found it is a rarity when evidence of a finding is reflected via different measures; a major reason I place limited evidence on lab findings.

   Quick question unrelated to this case but you’ve mentioned in a previous case:
   How long does it generally take for weekly B12 injections to bring down parietal cell antibodies? The lab that is covered by insurance just lists antibodies as present or not present, not an amount. I’m assuming it’s not going to go down to zero so at what point should we switch to monthly maintenance? And does a person generally need maintenance indefinitely if they’ve done other fixes like diet and other labs look okay?

   Thanks.

     You should be able to ask the lab for a quantification.

     It will likely take longer the higher the elevation. Perhaps 2-6 months.

     I’v reviewed two studies detailing this previously, here is one

     Maintenance once normal is reached. No longer term data here, so monitor the patient.

     Hope this helps.
