HW 372 SW 350 CW 185 GW 150 Lost 187 so far....
Reminder: Iron should only be taken with Vitamin C.... no other supplements. No caffeine... basically nothing 2 hrs before or 2 hours after. I take mine in the middle of the night when I wake up to pee. I set the clock, but always wake up before the alarm so I can shut it off and not wake Hubby.
Looking for a doctor that will order a complete panel of labs for a DSer in central to southern Florida or Delaware, Maryland, SE Pennsylvania, New Jersey or Washington, DC. I'm willing to travel to find a doctor that understands the DS. Surgeon has no appropriate follow up program. I live in Delaware and spend Winters in Florida. (10+ years out.)

I'm taking Xifaxan for 28 days along with neomycin for 20 days for SIBO. It has given me diarrhea, which is a relief since I've been severely constipated for past year, that caused 2 painful rectal fissures. I've had IBS-C for over 20 years, but was able to treat it with Metamucil and Miralax until SIBO. I've finished neomycin and continue to have the diarrhea. The fat is separated from the remainder of the stool, giving the "oil slicks" that I've heard other people talk about, but never seen. My fat intake is moderate, but I've decreased it due to the diarrhea. One of my two "gut" antibiotics, blocks vit A and B12 absorption. I've temporarily stopped those two vits. I've been taking my probiotics during antbx treatment. One is Primal Defense Ultra and the other is Now brand, that contains the same strain as Florastor.
My magnesium was low...I had bloodwork done..my iron is fine..low in Vitamin A..D...calcium..zinc...I have taken my vitamins religiously every day since surgery
I dont drink milk...coffee..pop or anything sugary
This is why Im frustrated
Me too..I have literally tried everything! I feel sick all the time...eat immodium...pepto bismol...I keep losing weight because nothing stays in me..everyone keeps asking if im sickð??" I don't know what to do anymore
I have done all this already...I have always are very low carb and low fat to none..nothing is working
I definitely will! Thanks so much
Im tired of feeling so sick all the time
Thanks for the information. I will look into the Now. I'm also trying my best to cut sugars. I think my sweet tooth is what gets me in the most trouble.
I just realized detoxing in my opinion is what we do every morning, hehe, when I go to the bathroom real good it seems take all that sugar Craven away. Plus I do sometimes take a daily detox pill for another reason. The brand is by Now. Calcium d-glucarate 500mg, however again, helps with another issuse related to PCOS.
Good review on Amazon.
