@visions63 - wow. Big 3, plus another med, picc line and surgery, that’s a lot to deal with but knocking it out is important.

This is what my dr recommended: Fortify 50 billion CFU per day; or "Physician Choice" 60 billion CFU per day; or "Wholesome Wellness" 100 billion CFU per day; or Garden of Life Raw Probiotic 100 billion CFU = 1 capsule once a day with lunch.

I went with the Physicians choice which I could by locally and worked well for me.

Best of luck with all you have going on and good vibes for negative cultures so you can start the countdown to going off the meds.
