Sibo And Exercise Pain


sallyterpsichore

Recommended Posts

I was diagnosed about a week ago with Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth and am trying to exercise and keep my energy up. I'm on two different antibiotics to kill off the bacteria. I tried doing some cardio today (only about 20 minutes) and I got a sharp pain in my lower left abdomen. Now, it could be a stitch, like I used to get in track, but it also felt a lot like the pain I felt when I was running when I had mono (I didn't know I had mono at the time).

Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks,

Sally

bump.

Help! This is also sometimes accompanied by really foul-smelling flatulence...sulphur like. It's not really painful, just chronic and only (usually) in the evenings. The rest of the symptoms still are a problem...as well as this new gas issue.

Does anyone else have any problems with cardio exercise and strange digestive symptoms?

Thanks in advance,

Sally

Sally,

The foul smelling gas could be bacteria die off. I think that smelly gas can also be something that you are not digesting.

I don't know about exercise pain, but when I wasn't digesting something and it was fermenting in my intestines, I got really smelly gas and lots of gas pains.

I wasn't diagnosed with SIBO but the last doctor I went to thought that might be my issue. I've been doing specific carbohydrate diet and it's really helping. Anyway, I think that if you are not digesting something it is probably causing more damage. You need to give yourself a chance to heal and eat foods that you are able to digest without symptoms.

Probiotics are really helping me too.

If you had the exact same pain with mono have you checked to see if the lymph nodes in your abdomen or groin are swollen? If you have an infection they can be, and this can cause pain when you move around a lot. I did not even know we had lymph nodes down there till I had to have one removed :)

I hope your SBO resolves. I did the drink the nasty tasting orange stuff for 2 weeks protocol for that. The Specific Carbohydrate diet looks a lot tastier.

      Do you believe your swallowing is a manifestation of your neuropathy? I'm thinking if you are having trouble getting food down you need to focus on consuming things that have a high nutritional density so that whatever you are able to get down counts for something. Have you looked at Boost and other high protein/high calorie shake products?  They are fortified with vitamins and minerals as well. Do you have any trouble with aspiration of liquids? For celiac testing purposes, the guidelines are calling for daily consumption of about 10gm of gluten - the amount in about 4-6 slices of bread - in order to ensure valid testing. That sounds like it would be a challenger for you.

      Thank you and I am aware that I should be eating a "normal" diet until tested it's kind of been trial and error for my diet or more like just ERROR! I about 1-3 bites a meal I'm to a point that 99 percent of the time I'm having trouble swallowing just about everything occasionally I find either something or a very small window of time that allows me to get very little of something! I am basically getting zero nutrition what so ever because I take one bite of the meal that I usually just slaved over just to end up tossing it when it's all said and done...did anyone else ever experience anything like this?  I am more then open to suggestions! It is taking a very extreme toll on me and my body forsure

      No! Do not start the gluten free diet until you know whether or not you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to verify the blood antibody test results. Starting gluten free eating ahead of either form of diagnostic testing can invalidate the results. You don't want to allow the villous lining of the small bowel to experience healing ahead of testing by removing gluten.

      We offer a ton of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and have done some articles on fast food places, but keep in mind that eating out is a common source of gluten contamination: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=fast food&quick=1&type=cms_records2 Many colleges now offer allergen-friendly, and sometimes gluten-free options in their student cafeterias: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=colleges&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy PS - Look into GliadinX, which is a sponsor here, but many studies have been done on it which show that it may break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.
