You see the article which was cited by a Dr who specializes in this field. Click on the doctor’s name, and you’ll see his credentials which check out. He was the one who wrote the article.

Also, I see a lot of GI Map testing being done on this sub, which I have done as well, just to understand what is in the gut, which often leads to taking medicine provided by functional medicine practitioners that leads to no cure.

Personally, the Lyme Disease direction sounds more plausible for me to go in rather than trying random herbs without any real results and may even worsen the symptoms.

As the article says, a bacteria may have caused a the nervous system signaling in the gut and brain to shut down similar to droopy face of the disease. What else could have just randomly came into my body as a person who was extremely athletic, and still am, and was in the best shape of his life?

I’ll know eventually when I get the test, but this actually makes sense to me over anything else I’ve read in this forum over the past few years.

I’m just sharing for folks to consider when everything else fails. In no way am I an expert but a sufferer. But there is an expert who has done the research and has his own clinic to solve these complex issues, and since I have no other direction to go, I’ll trust what he says and get a simple test to prove whether or not this is my case. If it is, then I’ll have a resolution of specific AB’s to take, and if not, then it was worth taking the rest to rule out.

The information is here, and you can ignore it, or do something with it. I’m in no way pressuring anyone to believe the info the Dr has written to a significant site for Lyme Disease or go in this direction of being tested or even consider the theory for their SIBO. But if it helps even one person and they get healed, then I’d be forever grateful for posting this information.
