What about bile acid malabsorption after gallbladder removal. On binders so have issues absorbing nutrients, but I’ve just finished 5 days course of rifaximin and feel so much better. I have have developed food aversion so have liquid supplements with added items following fodmap. Fruits, enhanced flax, hemp seed, chia seed, nut butters, oats and inject b12 when I feel I need it. BAM totally changed my gut and relationship with food.
I believe I gave myself some sprt of food poisoning around a year ago and I really really think I have SIBO. I was completely fine before, regarding digestion. I have been seeing my doctor regularly over the past year but he's basically just told me I have IBS and told me to stay on the low Fodmap diet. I had a sudden onset of extreme anxiety and panic attacks, along with muscle twitches, fatigue and pain all over my body. Amongst other things, my body feels like it's falling apart. I'm only 24 and this is crippling me still :( I need more help but I don't think my doctor is even aware of SIBO as he's not once brought it up as a possible option, no mention of a test, not even a stool sample/test. Even though my main symptoms are a mass of constant gas, almost every 2 minutes... upper gi discomfort and pain, and constipation. I need help badly but I don't know where to turn...
Why does Doctor Lee say "bugs" instead of bacteria?? Bacteria are NOT bugs! Nothing to do with bugs! Americans tend to call insects "bugs" (in fact bugs are a specific order of insects-Hemiptera) but calling bacteria "bugs" is a new level of simplificiation! It is in the same class as calling a toilet a bathroom as though they are the same thing. Nobidy I think has "pain goign to the bathroom", she means pain after going to the TOILET". A bathroom is where you wash,a toilet is where you go to empty bladder or bowels. There are toilets with no baths. There are bathrooms without toilets. And increasingly people are sinking to baby language -for example saying "poo" instead of excrement! I have the impression that language is become more and more tailored to the vocabulary levels of small children. An informative discussion nonetheless. I'm amused by Jay Gill's posing questions as though he has no idea of the answer, but I am (fairly) sure he knows the answer to the questions he is asking.

@ Sam Smith : call a naturopath- ask for the sibo breath test. I just did mine two weeks ago and I’m heading back in to get my results Wednesday.
Ask them to test u for sibo.they usually send u to a gastroenterologist for this.

Do you recommend prebiotics as well
