What Do My Lab Test Results Indicate?

Hi, A lab found 2+ Enterobacter cloacae complex in my stool sample. Is this dangerous? Is this possibile to treat in some way? In a natural way? They also found moderate yeast - Is this possibile to treat in some way? In a natural way? I ve heard oregano oil is good? Thanks! All the best! Simon Johansson

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Enterobacter cloacae is not a primary human pathogen but have been considered to be an important cause of nosocomial infections.

Enterobacter cloacae are part of the normal flora of the gastrointestinal tract of 40 to 80% of people and are widely distributed in the environment.

Enterobacter cloacae are able to cause various clinical pictures, including blood poisoning, as well as inflammation of the skin, tissues, respiratory tract, and organs.

However, infection of the urinary tract, eyes, and endocarditis are also possible. Please see your clinician.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
