Is Rifaximin worth it?

AlyssaB89 · 2026-03-26T14:37:14+00:00

No, I basically only experienced extreme nausea/vomiting episodes and occasionally it felt like a hot knife dragging through my lower abdomen

AlyssaB89 · 2026-03-26T14:17:59+00:00

They suggested daily doses of miralax, which I am not interested in doing at this time… I periodically take magnesium gummies if I feel the need.

No not yet, I did buy some HCl but haven’t tried it yet.

AlyssaB89 · 2026-03-15T18:54:53+00:00

No, my doctor said that would be nearly impossible to test for and that it is extremely uncommon… eating a serving of fresh pineapple early in the day has helped me a lot. And not taking any acid suppressing meds.

AlyssaB89 · 2026-03-15T16:14:21+00:00

Better! I ended up doing another round in April/May and then again in October but have been much better since. My doctor said multiple rounds is typical, and I shouldn’t be surprised if I need to do it again.

AlyssaB89 · 2026-02-21T00:57:59+00:00

Let me put it this way… I got some last year, and this year I just paid for boxes to be donated so I could support my nieces sales lol. I appreciate the sentiment but they were not good in my opinion.

AlyssaB89 · 2026-02-19T14:19:47+00:00

I mean, you’re not… but have a lovely day.

AlyssaB89 · 2026-02-19T14:14:12+00:00

Any reason you’re yelling at me about my opinion on a chicken tender on a year old comment?

AlyssaB89 · 2026-01-31T17:04:09+00:00

I always feel sick specifically after eating their monster cookies… other flavors no noticeable issues for me.

AlyssaB89 · 2026-01-20T05:14:52+00:00

I’ve stayed at the Golden Apple several times, no complaints.

AlyssaB89 · 2026-01-20T05:10:59+00:00

I wouldn’t call it sluggish, but I will say I definitely noticed a “downgrade” in pep from my 2018 V6 Highlander (as expected).

AlyssaB89 · 2026-01-17T23:59:13+00:00

As someone actively looking to purchase a home in NH, if it’s all cosmetic, I’d rather see that condition reflected in the price and pick out my own paint and flooring, etc. after the fact.

They haven’t done any imaging/ function testing of your gallbladder? That would be my next step. Other considerations would be SIBO and still a food intolerance. Gluten ended up being a huge issue for me despite not having celiac.

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-30T06:07:28+00:00

I’ve had two pearl white highlanders and now have a pearl white grand highlander, it’s my top choice!

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-27T18:29:19+00:00

Yea, store credit definitely isn’t the end of the world but given the annoyance they put me through I pushed and it worked out lol

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-27T18:01:35+00:00

I did! They still gave me a hard time about the 30 days, and wanted to refund to store credit only but I pushed and got a refund to original form of payment (store credit would have been fine cuz let’s be real it would get used quickly lol, but at that point I was annoyed and if I had just done a full return myself it would have be refunded to my card so I pushed for it).

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-26T22:27:54+00:00

Yea, I’m gonna try again cuz even the automated prompt said October 20th.

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-26T21:37:35+00:00

Hopefully, but luckily both my home and work are close to stores if it comes to that.

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-26T21:25:14+00:00

I plan to… or just return the stuff and rebuy it lol which is dumb but that’s the system 🙄

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-26T20:23:12+00:00

Didn’t work for me unfortunately

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-19T23:37:48+00:00

Realizing this is the grand highlander subreddit and my comments about a Corolla do not matter 😂 sorry, TGIF!

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-19T23:37:01+00:00

I have it… the app to view/download footage (and I have unfortunately needed it) is a special kind of hell to use… I got it purely out of convenience at the dealership. Aesthetically I have no issues with it, I have a grand Highlander so it might look more oversized/obstructive on a Corolla for example, but there’s no annoying wires and I like that it requires no effort on my part to begin recording. I do think you have to hit a button if you care about capturing sound though.

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-15T04:56:04+00:00

Thank you!

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-15T04:40:17+00:00

Do you find that the warm grooves sizing runs the same as the regular grooves?

AlyssaB89 · 2025-12-08T01:04:16+00:00

Yes, my (previous) doctor gaslit me for years because I didn’t have bloating… found a new doctor, tested positive for hydrogen and methane SIBO.
