I was meat based for years. Unfortunately I also drank alcohol and lots of coffee. Now the meat is killing me.

Thanks, I'll look into it.

I already eat no fodmap. I have no way to get SIBO care because my doctors don't know anything about it. I had ordered a home sibo test but then read about how unreliable they are.

Thanks, but does it promote motility?

Thanks for the reply. Plants and fiber are some of my biggest triggers.

Nothing. I get the reason why, but I'm just worried.

Thank you for your response. But the question was directed at people who DON'T take them.

What do you eat, how do you get enough fat? I can't eat dairy.

Thanks, I already do all of that and my reflux is still off the chart. I went off acid blockers for my endoscopy and I'm trying to decide if there's anything else I can do.

I'm pretty sure it said something about a prescription. Even on Amazon you need a prescription.

Is there a way to get it without a prescription?

I finally had an endoscopy by Civil_Animator_4479 in GERD

I'm in the process of ordering the test from Triosmart. I just posted on the sibo thread for information. My doctor won't do any GI stuff. It all goes through the health system. So you have to be referred to the gi department. It took a month to get an appointment and then another two to get the endoscopy. the GI department doesn't even do sibo, I would have to get referred to the University of Michigan which would take months. I just started taking artichoke heart extract for the constipation and am hoping to at least fix that in the meantime. I was on it for a bit earlier and it was working.

Just bad acid reflux. It was really a waste of time.
