So I had the apt in CC today and my docs attempted to open up the restricted airway again through bronchoscopy, only to find that the damage done from the metal stent placed by another hospital in another state, had caused so much damage that I have to now wear a silicone stent for at least a year to allow it to heal. I had the metal stent sucessfully removed and tried for several months to go stent free but my sad little body is trying to heal the airway and it is closing it off-to the best of my knowledge- and gathered explanation,. I was closed off and the choice had to be made.. Time to talk to a lawyer. Anyhow my doc said that the probiotics may help the immune situation but what was happening to me was NOT WG related and totally the damage from the metal stent. All labs and examinations and biopsies proved that this is not WG! That makes me happy.. but so mad at the hell I have been through over the past years.. Sad when you trust doctors to fix things and they only make them 100 times worse.
I have decided to do the probiotics every other day or at least twice a week and go gluten free for a while .. who knows I might loose some of this preddy weight and get healthy at the same time. I will keep you posted..
Thanks everyone for the help and caring!

So Velma ,you don't have wg at all ? That's great ! I know what you mean about drs. My mother had back surgery at CC and now she is in Soooo much pain and can't stand up straight and then can't stand for long. She had to have 3 more surgeries which all made things worse. If the drs. can prove that stent caused all your problems ,I would definitely sue. Good luck to you trying the probiotics.
