Question
I'm fed up with my gastroenterologist telling me to take antibiotics for the above problem, yet I continue to see him so I can get the proper medical testing to make sure there are no intestinal blockages or another disease process going on.  I also began seeing an acupuncturist/homeopath and have begun taking Probiotics,  
digestive enzymes and colon cleansers (which I find annoying since I have to take so many pills all the time, but I'm trying to adhere to the program.  I find that taking an enema is a relief.  What product can I use in the enema to increase the good bacteria in my gut/colon?
Would you also recommend taking Carbo-veg?  

Answer
I would put the probioitcs in the enema.
Most products like carbo-veg can't be taken with enzymes as they won't work.
I would stick to what you are doing.
When you are finished with the cleanse I would add
Fat Grabbers for fiber.
