Nausea and fatigue almost all day

@itarachiu,

We are supposed to have beneficial bacteria in our intestines.  

Rifaximin has been shown in early studies to promote the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria.  You may want to consider taking a probiotic and continue taking B Complex vitamins as Rifaximin can cause vitamin deficiencies.  

So glad you are seeing improvement!

The microbial density increases from the stomach to the rectum (Figure 1), with low densities in the small intestine.

Not really sterile, my mistake. I think I heard that to Dr. Mark Pimentel on YouTube, he is researching SIBO and all that stuff.

@knitty kitty

I tried probiotics(powder) before antibiotics, they pretty much did nothing however before probiotics(powder) I tried for a month to drink kefir(milk) and it really improved my digestion, specially better digestion for the first meal in the morning but nothing more. Now my plan is to use rounds of 10 days on antibiotics + herbs and then 5 days of probiotics(as powder) and kefir(milk) but without anbiotics. Taking antibiotics and probiotics in the same time I think is useless. I will do this for a few months at least, what I do know is the fact that is working.

Yes, @itarachiutaking antibiotics and probiotics together is rather useless.  However, since Rifaximin promotes the good bacteria naturally in the intestines, boosting those with a probiotic containing good bacteria like Lactobacillis should still be beneficial. 

Finishing the antibiotics first, then follow up with probiotics is a good plan, too.

Hey @itarachiu, Have you investigated any other Biofilm disruptor other than NAC?

@Rogol72

Not yet, I'm pretty happy with for the moment with this one. I guess it's working because I do feel better.

      Possibly gluten withdrawal. Lot's of info on the internet about it. Somewhat controversial but apparently gluten plugs into the same neuro sensors as opiates do and some people get a similar type withdrawal as they do when quitting opiates. Another issue is that gluten-free facsimile flours are not fortified with vitamins and minerals as is wheat flour (in the U.S. at least) so when the switch is made to gluten-free facsimile foods, especially if a lot of processed gluten-free foods are being used as substitutes, vitamin and mineral deficiencies can result. There is also the possibility that she has picked up a virus or some but that is totally unrelated to going gluten-free.

      I asked about the new fruit and nut one and the Dietician said yes I could eat it safely. Hooe this helps

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.
