I don’t know why you had multiple bladder infections after your transplant. Was it ecoli? Did surgeons take out your old pkd kidneys? I know that with grossly enlarged kidneys like I have, I have read in a journal that even with dehydration for a short time, upsets the delicate flow of urine and bacteria could start to accumulate. Not wiping good enough after each bowel movement could cause infection. Short period of diarrhea could cause infection. Align seems to be helping me. Cranberry juice seems to be helping me. As far as your gut health is concerned, talk to your gastroenterologist. He recommended prebiotics and probiotics for me. I sure hope you don’t get another bladder infection. I was miserable. You could try coconut yogurt and see if it helps. Let me know how that turns out.

coconut yogurt contains live and active cultures of gut-friendly bacteria, making it an excellent source of probiotics.
