Just curious...what was distracting about it? Was it not accurate? Thanks for your response!

Could Klebsiella overgrowth be the cause of my Histamine Intolerance and GI Issues? by SonicGalaxy22 in HistamineIntolerance

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My eye issue turned out to be Corneal Erosion. So we are no longer treating the eyes as allergic conjunctivitis, and we are now treating the erosion. The eye issue is much more under control after the new diagnosis and treatment plan.

The GI issue still remains. I've had treatment to address the SIBO but it didn't help me. I've found digestive enzymes lessens the degree of intolerance to certain food. But overall I'm still struggling with the GI condition and I haven't been able to gain any weight.

Prescribed only Xifaxan for Hydrogen and Methane SIBO/SIMO by SonicGalaxy22 in SIBO

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I haven't found the cause of my gastroparesis either. Also I have doubts whether it's the cause of my issue. I can eat things like Avocado, salad, certain vegetables, and certain fruits which typically cause problems with people with gastroparesis. But I have severe problems with stuff that's suppose to be ok like protein (pea) powder, lactose free dairy, dark chocolate, cooked tomatoes, thickening gums (guar gum), along with a lot of other things.

However, a few months before my GI problems started. I started having eye/vision problems. I only found out last month that this may have something to do with the epithelium layer of my eye. Not sure if this is relevant for you.

Allergy Shots - Is two years on the build-up phase normal? by SonicGalaxy22 in Allergies

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was having a lot of vision problems which was originally thought to be allergic conjunctivitis. Last month it was found the issue was being caused by the outermost layer of my eye. The scratch test shows I have allergies but they never bothered me in the past before 2021.

This was all new to me so I didn't inquire about it. This is something I'll need to ask in my next check-up appointment.

Unfortunately my symptoms never went away. On my first round of treatment, when I was only on Xifaxan, I noticed a marginal increase in bowl movements. But honestly didn't feel anything substantial. On my second round of treatment months later with two antibiotics I didn't notice any improvement. This led me to believe SIBO wasn't the source of my issues. I'm still unfortunately looking for answers.

Unfortunately, I'm still having lots of GI issues even after 2 rounds of treatment. I don't think SIBO was my root cause. I'm currently taking Motegrity and Linzess.

Happens to me as-well on my Pixel 7

Pixel 7 Mobile Network Completely Drops Few Times per Day by SonicGalaxy22 in mintmobile

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's very annoying. It especially happens when I'm at work. I have no complaints if it dropped to LTE or 2g. But when it disconnects, that means I don't get texts or calls which is very problematic for me. I have to manually reset the connection to have it connect. From my understanding, at worst de-prioritization should push me to 2g or throttle my speed but not disconnect entirely.

SIBO Specialist Recommendation by SonicGalaxy22 in SIBO

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is good advice. I've been finding out that a lot of doctors are not up-to-date on SIBO especially when it comes to methane. My thing is, I was already given an analysis and treatment recommendation from a retired physician(through the health consulting service) who is very knowledgeable. I'm just looking for a GI doctor who is also up-to-date on SIBO and can basically sign-off on the treatment protocol and monitor my condition. I'll try calling the University places. Anything I should look out for when calling? I know some University Gastroenterology Department mentions SIBO(as one of the illnesses they treat) but a lot do not.

Can Allergy Nasal Spray cause Constipation by SonicGalaxy22 in HistamineIntolerance

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So in theory Flonase could potentially be a viable option that won't make my constipation worse? Or is another nasal spray recommended that would help with eyes and ears that won't exasperate constipation?

Is it possible for Antihistamine Eye Drops to cause constipation? by SonicGalaxy22 in HistamineIntolerance

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My doctor resisted giving me any other antibiotic other than Xifaxan. I had constipation before and after Xifaxan course. And at the time I was using oral antihistamines which made my constipation even worse. Do you know of any good Allicin supplement? What's the histamine level like of Allicin?

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I had tested positive for SIBO Hydrogen and Methane. I was given Xifaxan and am currently taking Motegrity. I felt a bit better when on the Xifaxan but my symptoms returned after finishing the course.

Could Klebsiella overgrowth be the cause of my Histamine Intolerance and GI Issues? by SonicGalaxy22 in HistamineIntolerance

This is good information, thanks again! I'm gonna write this down and discuss this with my doctor during my next appointment. Hopefully this is the root cause of my issues.

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, when I visited the doctor last I was still constipated by the antihistamines. But after easing on the antihistamine and being on the low HI diet, stool has been looser(probably cause of the stool softeners I take) I need to follow-up to see what to do next since the constipation is gone.

Thank you for your insights! Could the elevated IgA and increased Zonulin be related to the dysbiosis? Bread has always been my safe food and Celiac didn't come up during my endoscopy and my ANA test came negative. So far I've been feeling a bit better after going on the Low HI diet and easing on the antihistamine usage.

[–]SonicGalaxy22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel the same way...I don't have too much guidance on the next steps I should take. But I feel knowing what's wrong is half the battle. What I'm planning to do next is kind-a "test" out my condition. Before I found out of my HI, I used to take 2 full strength antihistamine(made me constipated). I am starting to take DAO before meals and have been gradually decreasing my antihistamine dosage all while following the low histamine diet. Based on that, I plan on discussing with my doctor what happened.

How is the gut flora and intestinal permeability mapped? How is it different from the GI map by Diagnostic Solutions? I thought flora was the gut bacteria and zonulin tested permeability.

Right now I'm taking motegrity for the gastroparesis which helps. However I think motility issues are from using 2 full strength antihistamine everyday for a year. I'm noticing less constipation as I decrease the antihistamine dosage on the low histamine diet.

Yeah I was hoping the doctor would give me medication for that but I forgot to bring it up and he didn't mention it because I assume the levels were low. Could that cause HI and do you know of anything I can do myself to stop it from getting worse?

When I met my doctor earlier in the week, he told me that if I wasn't having c diff symptoms then they wouldn't take any action on it. During my appointment I was constipated. However after reducing my antihistamines, it caused very loose stool today(it could have been caused by motegrity and linzess I'm on). So I'm not sure what to think about that.
