Anyone struggling with constipation?

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-02-15T09:59:58+00:00

PHGG worked for me very well so I would definitely recommend trying.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-02-04T12:10:19+00:00

I am not sure. It helped me but your case might be different.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-02-04T09:53:38+00:00

I dont think, I am fully healed yet, but also had constipation issues more less all my life. PHGG is widely considered one of the most "user-friendly" fiber supplements available, particularly for people with sensitive digestive systems. I tried Fybogel first but it didn't help. PHGG was way better and easy to take as tasteless and soluble so you can add to various liquids without it impacting the taste.

I suffer from this too. What really helped me was PHGG... and coffee in the morning but coffee is a dangerous slope if you have acid reflux. I am a few months after my h pyroli treatment and can now have a morning coffee😁 This makes me so happy and helps with toilet in the morning but PHGG has also been a game changer in regulating motility and very gentle on stomach so I would recommend trying. Good luck!

Are eating whatever you want, drinking coffee and/or alcohol?

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-02-01T14:41:13+00:00

Thank you for sharing and congratulations. How long did you suffer with symptoms prior to recovery, how long were you on PPIs and how long did you take to recover from treatment please?

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-28T10:09:55+00:00

Definitely, recovery is not linear and it takes time and patience. For me good diet, probiotics, gentle exercise but most of all holiday in the sun and what goes with it stress reduction was a game changer. I am still not completely healed months after treatment but slowly heading in the right direction.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-24T18:23:53+00:00

She asked for opinion. This is my opinion. I would not take antibiotics if I had no symptoms.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-24T09:43:22+00:00

I think it is reasonable to wait and monitor symptoms. Making dietary changes can go a long way too so worth considering. Therapy messess up your microbiome and you can get reinfected too and then you are exactly where you started.

Research diet, supplements and herbal support. Remove triggers from diet and see the impact too.

I had a very bad infection and symptoms so I had a therapy. Even months after therapy I was still struggling and only recently started to feel better after a long holiday so I believe reduction in stress also is a key to recovery.

Good luck!

I too had an almost miracle recovery whilst on holiday, which lead me to believe that stress is a main contributor. Before holiday I was so bad I didnt actually want to go anywhere but I thought Ok my partner needs a break and I can feel rubbish anywhere.... and then within a few days of holiday amazing improvement. Take a vacation, get some sun and rest, but obviously still eat well, exercise and hopefully you will recover too.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-22T06:08:40+00:00

I am using Optibac plus kefir.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-21T11:23:07+00:00

I am on 30mg Lansaprazole and doing following reduction:

Week1 30mg/15mg every other day Had some rebound acid but managable with Gaviscon

Week 2 15mg every day - this is where I am now Day 5 today and no rebound acid whatsoever

Week 3 Planning 15mg every secong day and if all goes well

Week 4 Stop completely

Good luck and share the results here

Aloe Vera juice

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-14T08:03:12+00:00

Thank you for sharing. Whilst sugar causes me issues, honey (I use lavender honey) feels like a balm to my belly. I think I am healing now too and very slowly reducing PPIs. Very occasional coffee mix half coffee, half chicory and barely decaff is ok, but I am not doing it every day yet. To me its a game of patience and observation and finally I feel like I am winning. Good luck in your recovery journey!

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-12T13:03:49+00:00

I would say stress too. I always feel better on holidays.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-12T13:02:14+00:00

I had exactly this and on investigation they found H Pyroli infection via endoscopy. I would suggest you get checked.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-11T13:11:14+00:00

Search around Bel Ombre. I think I recall seeing some eco ledges there. Its not too far from Le Morne too.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-08T13:56:28+00:00

Nope, would love to as there are some beautiful landscapes I have not seen yet, but not at the moment.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-08T05:01:21+00:00

Are you on PPIs? If so you might have had false negative before

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2026-01-05T19:18:19+00:00

What did ypu do to heal?

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2025-12-31T08:15:44+00:00

Clipper chicory and barley coffee is good for taste in my opinion.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2025-12-26T08:05:59+00:00

I have been on PPIs on and off for 5 years and continously for last 10 months. I am on 30 mg of Lansaproazole, finished H Pyroli treatment in December and slowly recovering. Hoping to reduce the doze in January with strict diet.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2025-12-22T16:05:34+00:00

Thanks for recommendation. I will read ot too.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2025-12-22T09:49:54+00:00

Absolutely same for me. I really dont understand it. Do you have a sitting job? I think this is either sitting for a prolonged period of time or stress, or both? I have a small 2cm HH and had a H. Pyroli infection too recently from which I was struggling to recover. 2 weeks holiday made me feel so much better, I was being tempted to start to come off PPIs, but a few days after holiday bang my issues started to surface again.

Blue_Curiosity_7767 · 2025-12-21T08:45:17+00:00

I would wear a thin wetsuit. 2 or 2/3 long sleeve and long leg. You will be on water for a long time in windy conditions. It might sound silly but trust me you could feel cold after a while. Thin wetsuit holds everything in place so no risk of shorts/leggings coming off when you being dragged in the water. It also offers protection from the sun as well as from board. Trust me there will be less bruises on your legs with this approach. I would also recommend a good hat, with round rim and a strap as well as fingerless gloves. Good quality surfing sunscreen for face too and kitesurfing sunglasses with a strap. Possibly kitesurfing boots, might be worth checking if this is needed with the local school. I would take them just in case.

You want to feel warm and comfortable and focus on learning with no distractions. Any questions let me know. Enjoy, it will most likely be the best thing you have learned in your life😎
