Very helpful thank you

I had an upper endoscopy procedure a few months ago the results were mild chronic antral gastritis with focal intestinal metaplasia /reactive/regenerative changes found from the gastric polyp so that’s why I’m getting this done because more symptoms especially lots of acid reflux symptoms as well with mucus in my stools

Exc helpful video thank you.I’ve all the symptom’s of sibo inc severe nausea & zero appetite.But I’ve had a sibo test & it’s negative.The problem is I have slow gut transit,is it poss to get an accurate sibo test with this condition? Thanks

Hello Amanda, are you familiar with the work of Karen Hurd? She claims that root cause of sibo is a congested bile/liver issue, that's what sibo keeps coming back even after a round of antibiotics. Whats your take on it?

I've had gastrointestinal issues for the last 26 years only to find out its SIBO five years ago with a breath test. I still haven't found treatment to help and now my 12 year old started showing symptoms and I'm so nervous for him. 🙁

Take celery juice for sibo. Its works. But start slow and build it up

Hi Amanda, do you offer SIBO consultation? Do you take insurance? I am looking for a functional practitioner who will prescribe the GI Map for my daughter.

Thanks for the great info. I see that you take the time to reply when you can so I will ask this question in the hopes of getting an answer. I had some bloating which isnt as bad now but still slightly present but also I am consistently having a cramping feeling on my right side under my rib cage and and goes around to my kidney area back right. This has not gone away in a couple of months some days i might get lucky and have little or no cramps while others will be worse. I wont feel the cramping all day but definitely it will become present when I am more fatigued or later in the day. Note I have had my gallbladder removed over 20 years a go.....I have been on a PPI over 20 years....My EGD and colonoscopy were clean. So with the episode of bloating followed by this lasting right side cramping I am thinking I have SIBO or something similar. Could I be backed up in the bowels even if I am pretty regular? I went to a GI Dr and he said take Boulardi one cap per day and see how you feel. I have not started that med yet as I think he just threw that out there and collected his copay. He was retiring in a month.... Do my symptoms of bloating and right side cramping sound like SIBO to you?

I'm curious of your thoughts about Dr Ruscio's protocol.

My doctor ordered a GI Tract Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy. I have severe bloating and extreme weight loss. GI workup, stool mapping all negative. SIBO test very low hydrogen. Wondering your opinion on this capsule endoscopy?

Hi . I found that I have sibo . Here in Norway dr gave medicine which flagyl 400mg . I asked him if he can give me rafixmain but he said that we use this for liver disorders . Do you think flagyl 400 mg would be help in order to kick out sibo .. thanks in advance

I am treating sibo with FC Cidal and Dysbiocode but 2/3 of the way in it gave me horrible GERD in my chest. Why?? I can’t seem to get rid of it!!

Ma'am how to know if we have sibo from GI map stool test? We don't have SIBO breath test available in our state

I've had sibo or sifo. got tons of tests from traditional doctors. they have no answers. meanwhile, my stomach is in pain and undigested food is the norm. been taking digestive enzymes, but still quite constipated

My doctor refused to give me the referral to see a gastroenterologist even though at one point I ended up in hospital with a lot of distension. I thought I had parasites maybe...years later issues are still not resolved.

Hi mam, Can gi map test rule out SIBO?

Can you have methane detected in sibo if not detected in microbiome stool sample.

Can SIBO or IBS cause post nasal drip

Vomiting food that you ate 28 hours before is another symptom because my gastro told me the methane shuts down the system. All of the other symptoms also/ It is the worst ever.
