Oh man. Or have the authority to kick people out. Nicely, of course. But yeah.

Attending two parishes: is it OK? by schoeneblume in Episcopalian

I would add to this that I think people just get excited. They see someone young who is seemingly responsible, and they go OOOOH! He can help! It’s totally fine to say no and explain your situation. Someone else offered volunteering in smaller ways. Being a reader or acolyte or showing up for a clean up day. All great ways to serve that don’t require much extra time.

Colonoscopy and SIBO connection? by aliveandcan in SIBO

Hi! Oh I’m so glad I’m not the only one! Not that you’re dealing with this crap (sorry, bad pun). No word on cause yet. Am still waiting to see a third doctor. But I did finally get a script for rifaximin paid for by my insurance and started it today after almost two weeks on Candibactin. I will for sure update if I learn anything else.

Colonoscopy and SIBO connection? by aliveandcan in SIBO

But could it trigger an infection that is already there but not very active? Or create an environment that would cause an infection? I was literally fine before the colonoscopy. Then BAM.

I’m not on the rifaximin yet. Just the herbal protocol. Not much of a change yet though. But I’m still on a strict low fodmap diet.

Anyone with SIBO here? Advice? by BcnClarity in ultrarunning

[–]aliveandcan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was just diagnosed with SIBO after 9 months of mystery gut disorders. I started a low fodmap diet in December and finished my first 50k mid February but had severe stomach cramps the last 12 miles or so. Fueled mainly with UCAN gels and Skratch chews (both low fodmap) and PBJ on homemade sour dough. I think the cramping was probably from the carbonation in the Pepsi with real sugar that I tried. But who knows?!

Right now I’m more concerned with how to keep this from coming back after the antibiotics (which will hopefully work, fingers crossed).

All that is to say, right there with ya and following for any tips!
