    Sofie,

    Did you get to talk to Dr. S. through e-mail? Are you taking enough probiotics? Maybe someone will chime in to give you their suggestions.

    What probiotics are you taking, and what is the dosage? (example:  5 billion, 10 billion, 30 billion, etc. per dose)

    I eat probimax, like that you chew. it says:
    “Probiomax contains the well-documented lactic acid bacterium Lactobacillus reuteri Protectis
    One tablet of Probiomax contains more than 100 million live bacteria of the strain Lactobacillus reuteri DSM Protectis 17938th “

    This is just my dosage and experience but, I take a total of 120 BILLION per day, because I'm on 3 different antibiotics.  Maybe you should try a stronger probiotic to see if that will help.  Just a suggestion.

    If you take a probiotic that is not enteric-coated, then it's possible for 90% of the bacteria to be destroyed by the acid in your stomach. That may be why the chewable probiotic you've been taking wasn't enough.

    Enteric-coated means that the tablets or capsules have a special coating that will not dissolve in acid. Enteric-coated tablets or capsules are designed to pass through the stomach unchanged and then disintegrate when they reach the small intestine.

    Lactiplus would not be my first choice. How many are you taking and when are you taking them?

    If you take them with water on an empty stomach about 20 to 30 minutes before a meal, that should help. They will move into your small intestine more quickly, which should reduce their exposure to stomach acid.
