Thank you for your question.<\/p>\n
As with any physical symptom that is causing you pain or that you are worried about, you need see your doctor.<\/p>\n
It is unlikely to be related to pro-biotic use, but you need to seek medical advice from a doctor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Hi there<\/p>\n
I have been diagnosed HIV-positive since September 2007 and went onto HAART on last August using Atripla (tenofovir+FTC+efavirenz) which I take at 10pm at night.<\/p>\n
I have read online that HIV-positive people are prone to gut infections etc so I bought some probiotic supplements with 10 million bacteria in them which I was taking after breakfast around 715am.<\/p>\n
After a couple of weeks I started to wake up early in the mornings (around 4.30am) with a tender pain in my right hand side (swollen feeling), I tried to contact my HIV doctor but as she was on holiday I went into the walk-in clinic. I was assessed by a nurse, but after waiting over two hours I had to get back to work so did not get chance to see anyone.<\/p>\n
I’ve stopped taking the probiotic supplement now and last week it seemed to have eased, however the last couple of mornings I have woke up early again with a much milder discomfort on my right hand side just about my waistband. What could this be?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-817","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-all-topics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=817"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=817"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=817"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=817"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
