【2nd transplantation questionnaire】 After the first transplant, the burning in my arms, legs, and neck has lessened. Bowel movements also improved a little. 【3rd transplantation questionnaire】 Decreased frequency of leg pain and queasiness, which used to be symptomatic in the evening.

Mood changes. (It’s getting better.) |
Evaluation and Discussion

| Pre- and post-transplant flora balance test changes : | [PRIOR TO TRANSPLANTATION] SEPTEMBER 2019.
THERE ARE NO PARTICULAR PROBLEMS WITH OVERALL GUT FLORA AND C. CLUSTER DIVERSITY.
HOWEVER, THERE IS A SLIGHT BALANCE PROBLEM.
THE PERCENTAGE OF LACTOBACILLUS, BACTEROIDES, AND PREVOTELLA IS LOW AND THE PERCENTAGE OF C. CLUSTER IX IS SLIGHTLY HIGH.
