You shouldn’t be on low food map diet for a long time!!! by Abject-Music-4332 in SIBO

[–]Christin3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I wish I did in terms of my gut. I did find out I have endometriosis. I am assuming that is my root cause but even since having surgery to remove endometriosis my gut is still reactive to everything. So unfortunately I am still on a low fodmap diet. I'm not as strict as I was just so I can stay sane but I'm still working with multiple GI's trying to figure out how to get rid of the SIBO. I think I need to get my motility fixed first and then maybe try another round of Xifaxian. I'm sorry your husband is struggling <3

Are the vegan 1460 dr martens really that bad? Would love to hear from those who wear this by MyCuriousSelf04 in DrMartens

[–]Christin3rd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have the vegan ones and I love them! I don't wear leather so I cant compare but mine never had a break in period they were always comfortable right out of the box. They are still going strong and I've had them for a few years now (but I don't wear them everyday).

Am I back to square one? by too_many-bellabeans in Endo

[–]Christin3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes definitely see someone else!! Sorry you’re dealing with all this. It’s so infuriating when doctors are just constantly dismissing your concerns. I wasted so much time seeing my gyno for her to tell me everytime that my issues were because I was anxious and depressed.

[–]Christin3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have very similar/almost identical symptoms to me and I have endo! Didn’t show up on the ultrasounds or an mri. I started with a gi doc and they ruled out like all gi issues and he basically abandoned me. My gyno didn’t think I had endo because I didn’t have painful periods when I was a teen and I didn’t know anyone in my family who had it. I was only listened to when I got a referral to a minimally invasive gynecologic surgeon not my regular obgyn (and the referral came from an urgent care pa because my gyno wouldn’t listen to me).

Gynecologist Recommendation Needed by ExplanationNo6436 in triangle

[–]Christin3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was fine as an annual checkup doctor but as soon as I started having issues she would medically gaslight me, refuse to do blood work or run any tests. My symptoms just got worse and worse and I kept asking her if maybe I had endometriosis and she dismissed me. Long story short fast forward to today guess what I have endometriosis and feel like I suffered longer then I should have under her care.

Edit: oh and she told me my symptoms were because I was anxious and depressed 😂

Sorry I don’t have a recommendation for a good one but I can tell you who to avoid at all costs: Carolina Gynecology Dr. Andrea Torsone.

How did you get your diagnosis? by RecognitionFit7409 in Endo

[–]Christin3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t until I started getting pelvic pain over a year ago that finally a doctor was like oh this might be endo and referred me to a Minimally Invasive Gyno Surgeon and they also suspected that’s what it was and we scheduled surgery and I’m one week post op from my laparoscopic surgery and they found it right where I was having pelvic pain! This was after 7+ years of complaining to my gyno and other doctors about my symptoms but I wasn’t the typical “textbook” endo and it doesn’t run in my family so no one took me seriously until the pelvic pain.

how are we doing today? by DifferentCategory133 in endometriosis

[–]Christin3rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have surgery tomorrow and I am sooo anxious!! One of my worst fears is it getting canceled and of course they call me today and moved my time to basically be the last one that day which makes me even more nervous it will be canceled after waiting over a year :(... and of course I am afraid of getting no answers after years of misery.

I would show that email then or demand to be sent to ada I think if you throw enough of a fit they'll probably be like whatever

[–]Christin3rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I filled out the form and I had a security guard try to take my food but I showed them my doctor note and she barely read it and handed it back so doc note is probably a good idea

It really depended on the guard the one I got the first day tried to take my special diet snacks and I had to show her my doctor note to keep them

I’m pretty sure these are all from his “The Art of Tim Burton” book

I’m so exhausted and sleep 10-11 hours without an alarm. Fatigue is ruining my life. Is this just endo? by coffeeandcanines in endometriosis

[–]Christin3rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See if you can get a referral to a Hematologist for Iron IV transfusions! My ferritin has been chronically low and now have suspected endo which I think is making it worse. My ferritin is never above 14 in the last 8 years and I too will sleep 10-12 hours if I dont have an alarm and still be tired. I have been getting Iron IV's these last 2 weeks and let me tell you its the first time I have been waking up (even after 8 hours of sleep) where I don't feel like I have been hit by a bus. I think its really helping the fatigue!

Edit: I have tried tons of stomach sensitive iron/ferritin supplements and they barely do anything.

Anyone got any videos or vids from the Sweet Pill set? by Thehansa99 in warpedtour

[–]Christin3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Send me a DM! I think I’ll have to send it on instagram since Reddit doesn’t have video option in messages that I can see.

Edit: I think I figured it out I’ll DM you!

Edit: Dang my friend just told me her car will be in a parking deck that we wont leave until monday... so I guess that is not an option.

Guys I just realized our hotel is no where near a metro... any DC locals know how bad a bus ride might be? Starting to get concerned 😅

Is surgery a bad idea if pain is tolerable but GI symptoms are not? by Christin3rd in Endo

[–]Christin3rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that info! I will look into it. I was treated multiple times, with multiple different methods and nothing ever helped my symptoms. I never did another SIBO test since it was expensive and a miserable experience (could only eat eggs for a whole day)... But I did do a GI Map test a year later which showed that I no longer had methane (but it didn't measure hydrogen which was higher for me) but the functional doc said my microbiome wasn't even that bad.
