Thanks Birgitta,

Grant has been taking a refrigerated probiotic capsule for about 6 months with no problems, even when he has been neutropenic.
I just sort of freaked myself out recently when I realized that it may not have been a good idea. I guess ignorance is bliss. I did tell his doctors he was taking it, but it was just one item in a list of other herbs and stuff and I wonder if they even noticed.
It is on my list of questions for this week when I talk to his doctors.
The one he takes also contains a PRE-biotic in addition to 6 strains of probiotics. All of the probiotics are in the lactobacillus or bifidobacterium family.
