Sibo...anyone Else?

Just wondering...for those of you have have/have had SIBO, would you mind sharing about it for me? What were your symptoms, and how were you dx'd, and what treatments have you tried?

I went on a course of abx for that a few weeks ago, and it worked great for 4 days...after which it got really bad. I've improved from where I was last week after it got worse, but I'm still not feeling great. What's up? Does this often happen? I'm trying to replace whatever the abx killed off with probiotics, but I'm wondering what's up. I've heard you can get worse before it gets better...could that be what's going on?

Thanks!

      gluten-free stool softener needed for after surgery

      A typical CYA response--since they don't label it that way they don't test for gluten, thus can't guarantee it's gluten-free, even though no gluten ingredients are used in the product.

      Searching for the source - anyone have problems with Crunchmaster crackers?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I understand your immense frustration after 17 years of excellent management; it's incredibly disorienting to have your numbers spike without a clear cause or physical symptoms. Given your thorough investigation, the Crunchmaster crackers are a very plausible culprit, despite their certification. Certification ensures gluten is below 20ppm, but if you are consuming them daily, even that tiny amount could theoretically accumulate over time to cause an immune response (elevated IgG) without triggering your acute symptomatic response (which is often IgA-mediated). Since your son, the perfect control subject, doesn't eat them, this is an excellent hypothesis to test. I would recommend a strict elimination trial: remove the crackers completely for 4-6 weeks and then re-test your IgG levels. If the numbers drop significantly, you have your answer. Other less obvious sources to consider if the crackers aren't to blame include any other new packaged goods (spices, nuts, chocolate, supplements), a change in the recipe of a trusted product, or even lipstick or toothpaste. Your methodical approach is exactly what will solve this mystery.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Jenny (AZ via TX) · Posted

      When using daily med to look up prescriptions, is there a way to filter ingredients such as gluten or wheat?  I usually take only a couple of drugs but since I’m having surgery, I have 5 new ones to take for a short time post-op. Thanks!   For non prescription drugs, Walgreens has a line called Free&Pure that has gluten free written on the packaging if anyone is interested.
