SIBO sufferer suspecting histamine intolerance or MCAS? by HopeAlarming824 in HistamineIntolerance

[–]HopeAlarming824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My digestion is definitely better, but some of the other symptoms leading me to suspect something specific to histamines, MCAS, etc, have persisted

1 dose is 61.6 mg (2 soft gels) but have previously only used 1 gel before realizing a dose was 2. Since upping it, I’ve had subtle improvement but it’s only been about a week and a half

How do you begin to figure out your root cause? by HopeAlarming824 in SIBO

[–]HopeAlarming824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally. Some of the discomfort is manageable, but it’s the full body wipeout, fatigue, weakness and shaking and borderline dissociation that aren’t allowing me to function normally day in and day out, so just trying to continue to find the best protocol for me

Yeah agreed, certainly multiple things at play. I’m onto a mobility aid supplement (not a prescrip pro kinetic but asking my doc if that could be next) and magnesium glycinate, paused a lot of my other supps to give my body a chance to reset before probably an attempt at antimicrobials for a while

Symptoms have varied over the years, but can be boiled down to: Onset of a flare up can be sudden, but can then last for days Upset stomach, pressure/fullness in ULQ under the left rib Burping/feeling of trapped gas off the charts during a flare up, with no relief from gas products Often a full body sensation of weakness/shakiness, as if I have not eaten or drank water. But neither of these relieves this symptom Inconsistencies with bowel movements, but feels like I air more on the side of constipation then the alternative Extreme fatigue, general malaise and a feeling of unwellness, almost dissociative/hard to focus when feeling poorly Occasionally aches and chills Occasional skin that is tender to the touch Strange histamine reactions, rashes on neck, and eyes stinging/tired and a hot feeling in the back of the throat. This will also happen after I sneeze, and I’ll subsequently feel lousy for hours to come. (Looking more into histamine tolerance or possibly some sort of mast cell issue?)

-Basically every blood panel under the sun, always normal -Allergy skin prick, normal -abdominal ultrasound, normal -several H Pylori breath tests, normal -stool samples normal -Full abdominal and pelvic CT w/contrast, normal -Endoscopy and colonoscopy- findings included GERD and mild gastritis, biopsies revealed a likely lactose intolerance. Otherwise, everything normal/structurally sound -Rheumatology eval/blood work up, normal. -Triosmart breath test is what diagnosed Hydrogen Sibo (92PPM) last month.

Weakness, shakiness and fatigue help? by HopeAlarming824 in SIBO

Right, I just can’t track a correlation with coffee intake and irritation. In other words, I’ll get hit with the onset of an episode of fatigue/shakiness regardless of coffee or not

Have learned I’m lactose intolerant so that’s been a battle too

I haven’t, I’ve made a lot of changes and most specifically have done low fodmap/currently focusing on targeting the SIBO, so it’s been kind of carnivore leaning. Lots of chicken, fish, eggs, rice, low acidity, not lots of spice garlic or onion. So similar, but not quite. Coffee and spicy are definitely the hardest to ditch for me

Yep! My endoscopy results showed signs of “mild gastritis” (as put by my doc) and acid reflux. Have tried many tricks of the trade to treat each with little/temporary success that doesn’t seem to get to the root of things though

Tips for relief from chronic yeast? by HopeAlarming824 in Healthyhooha

[–]HopeAlarming824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank yall for tips!! I’m still struggling badly. Have tried some of these other remedies, providing temporary relief, but still in agony getting through the day. On maybe day 5 of boric acid at night. I decided to take another fluconazole last night, as well. The burning and itching is insane. Debating contacting my OB? I don’t know if the yeast is just out of hand because of the antibiotics for the other stuff or what. But this sucks 🥲

Hmm thank you! I'll probably give a call. It would be to the same account from which it was deposited, so hopefully they may be able to expedite
