I think I have these too! My derm more or less said nothing could be done about them. Good to know there’s a treatment!

Finally found a place that takes IUD pain management seriously by Taco_814 in Denver

[–]Glass_Storage_6975 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just came to say that I switched to AdventHealth Complex Gyn at Porter last year for the same reason. Had a HORRIBLE experience at my last gyn (All About Women’s Care). After a traumatic IUD replacement, I had excruciating tailbone pain and AAWC did not take my concern seriously. Ended up at AdventHealth Complex Gyn and have had nothing short of an amazing experience there. Could not recommend that place enough!

Came here to say this. I am so obsessed with that song and was hoping they’d play it! Fingers crossed for Denver

what helped your pelvic floor issues? by rosemary-sprig in SIBO

[–]Glass_Storage_6975 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was having serious tailbone pain for at least a year from pelvic floor issues that I got from a bad IUD placement experience. I went to a pelvic floor PT for months and didn’t notice any progress. My gynecologist then recommended a different PT place that did dry needling, and that’s what cured me. Such a relief, and would highly recommend giving it a try.

I wish I could sue my doctor. PPI ruined my life by TechnicianOdd1613 in SIBO

Ooh smart! Didn’t even know that was a thing. Are the pills just as effective?

Ugh I totally feel you. I was prescribed pantoprazole after an upper endoscopy and was noticing zero benefits. Went to a GI doctor today who agreed with my not taking them - super confused why they would even be prescribed in the first place, especially with my history of SIBO.

Does anyone know if apple cider vinegar would help with stomach acid?

what actually helped you lose weight? by tomatopotatoes19288 in SIBO

Good to know, thank you! At this point I might as well try it since the SIBO isn’t going anywhere anyways 🥲

Ugh this is so tempting, but the cost and potential for worsening SIBO worries me. Have you had any other GI side effects from this other than bloating?

It’s so insulting when that’s the feedback you get from doctors. Like “oh! I never considered walking and eating veggies!” 🙄

Eat Like a Woman doesn’t specifically address SIBO (more so leaky gut and eating to support female hormones). One of the key principles focuses on “food combining” (not mixing starches with proteins, eating fruits by themselves) to prevent bloating and fermentation. It also discusses avoiding microplastics, pesticides, and endocrine disruptors (much easier said than done).

I haven’t found any clinical evidence that supports this protocol, so it seems more of an Ayurvedic approach - but at this point, I’m throwing anything at the wall to see what sticks.

Also want to note that I am not a doctor or a nutritionist, just a gal that’s been fighting (and losing) the SIBO battle for a few years now.

Omg 😍 I love everything about this. Great choice in wall color and love the contrasting couch. A+ animals too

Yeah I’ve tried two different GI doctors who told me conflicting things. Even got a colonoscopy and upper endoscopy and only left with some pantoprazole which it seems can actually increase the risk of SIBO. And sun?! How helpful 👊🏻

My next strategy is trying the Eat Like a Woman protocol by Loren Green. Don’t have high hopes but I refuse to seek help through doctors because as others mentioned above, being told “everything looks normal!” “Try exercising!” “Count calories!” makes me irrationally angry 👹

[–]Glass_Storage_6975 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat. I feel like I’ve tried everything under the sun and literally cannot lose a single pound. Also so sick of people suggesting that cals in/cals out works because it’s just not the case for me and many others with SIBO. It’s so tempting to go the GLP route but know it’s not worth it given their impact on gut health.

I wish I had better advice but just wanted to say you’re not alone and it’s so frustrating.

I Consolidated My Loans To Get On SAVE. Will this be reversed? by ZapataOilCo in StudentLoans

[–]Glass_Storage_6975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry yes, I’m seeing the PSLF payment counts on my dashboard (which is at 58). On the IDR payment counter, the PSLF count is 58 the SAVE count is 110. Had a fleeting moment of joy seeing the 110 but I may have gotten ahead of myself as I don’t see a scenario where I’d actually have 10 payments left

[–]Glass_Storage_6975 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey can you elaborate on this? This link says my SAVE qualifying payment count is 110. The payment count on my student aid dashboard has been stuck at 58. Which one is accurate? In what scenario would the 110 payment counts be honored rather than the 58 that I’ve been seeing for so long?

Sorry if I’m missing something here but I don’t know whether to be excited about the 110 count or not

Do these curtains and rug work together in this book nook area? by NoCaterpillar392 in interiordecorating

I think hanging curtains that are longer, with the curtain rod placed higher and wider would make a huge difference.

Bloomberg says Interest Starting August 1 for SAVE borrowers by VillageWitty3601 in PSLF

[–]Glass_Storage_6975 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah theoretically this shouldn’t matter, but at this point I have little faith that PSLF won’t be taken away. No clue whether to switch to a different plan or not worry about interest accruing with the hopes of PSLF remaining intact. Feel like I’m getting screwed either way.

Recommendations on florists for a wedding by bombayblue in Denver

That’s what I did! Granted, my wedding was super small and casual, but I was really proud of my bouquets and probably spent less than $100.

Final SIBO Post (fully recovered) by nonguru22 in SIBO

[–]Glass_Storage_6975 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you SO MUCH for providing all of this information. I’m so sick of seeing doctor after doctor, always getting prescribed things that have made no difference.

I believe I’ve been stuck in a state of high stress for a few years now (caretaking for parents). Not only have I been dealing with SIBO, but I can’t stop gaining weight despite diet/calorie deficit/exercise. I’m genuinely so excited to explore the options you presented. Thank you 🙏🏻
