I've been sick as a dog, stomach-wise, every day since I took them - lots of the big D, almost every day, twice a day some times. My question is, does anyone know if you can be allergic to probiotics? Or is this dieoff? It's such a nuisance that I'm considering stopping taking them, but on the other hand, if this is dieoff and I will get better, I don't want to stop. Also, apples and potatoes seem to make everything worse, which is strange to me because I thought they were both really healthy foods.
I'm only taking probiotics because I can't take any antifungals right now due to my pregnancy.
Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you.

sounds like die off symptoms to me. If it's a different type of reaction, maybe try taking a different probiotic...i really like the kind that's refrigerated and not in a pill form. you mix it in a cup of h2o.
coconut oil and anything with omega 3s will REALLY help you out. also, try using grapeseed oil for your homemade mayonnaise.
eating apples and potatoes will DEFINITELY make your symptoms much worse. Anything with carbs...every time I eat anything like that I instantly feel really drunk.
Hope this helps you out a bit!! Good luck and congrats on being pregnant....
