  4. A couple questions regarding results of two Doctor’s Data tests. The first is for a 60-year-old female with many complaints. Mood, neuropathy, back pain, sleep disturbance, dizziness, low blood pressure. She’s been on an anti-inflammatory diet since she started with me although not specifically Paleo mostly. I’ve suspected autoimmune problems but that’s just a hunch and not part of my diagnostic experience. I ran the stool cultures for her because I thought she had a yeast infection, because the look of her tongue and symptoms of burning tongue and vaginal/vulvar burning which responded to small doses of antifungal medicine prescribed by one of her doctors. The results of the Doctor’s Data was 4+ Bacteroides.

Dr. Amy Nett:  I think you mean Bacteroides fragilis? Oh 4+ Bacteroides, E. coli and Clostridium. 1+ Lactobacillus and Enterococcus and no growth of Bifidobacteria. Okay. So borderline you would sort of question an insufficiency dysbiosis because 1+ lacto enter bifido.
