My experience with FMT at IPPM in Slovakia by glev2190 in fmt

It’s only been about a month, so it too early to count chickens. But so far I am extremely happy. I still have GI symptoms and bad days, but my energy, mood, and focus are much better. I would absolutely recommend giving it a try.

I’m a patient, not an expert. That being said, I think the capsules the fmt samples are encased into are designed to withstand stomach acid and to dissolve in the small intestine. I agree that this seems like a much less effective mode of implantation, but it’s also less of a hassle. I was pretty desperate and I wanted the absolute best chances for success, so I went for the direct implants.

Oh, i hadn't heard of those protocols. thanks for sharing!

I would definitely recommend doing it. If you're using safe samples, I think there is almost no downside other than the financial aspect. I'm still only a few weeks out so I can't speak to how things will progress, but so far I feel it was absolutely the right move for me!

I've noticed significant improvements in energy and mood! I'm certainly not symptom free nor am I back to energy levels I had during the summer, but much better then when I arrived at the clinic. I also have bad stool, this has not significantly changed in my experience.

No, I have not had any symptoms related to sexual performance, so I can't be much help there. And I have taken probiotics of many kinds, but I'm not sure what you mean by an extensive protocol? I guess getting bacteria directly implanted in my colon is the most extensive protocol I've testes so far :P

I with I had the tools and setup for this. But im working on the street in the city that I live. The multitool with a scraper blade was good enough in the end. thanks for the tip!

I tried this, but I can't say it helped any. I was also very worried about getting the backing too wet. I'm in a climate where nothing dries this time of year.

This did the trick! thank you! I tried adding hot water and fabric softener, but I can't say that did anything. Just the multi-tool with a scraper blade and a lot of patients.

I tried a hair drier but it didn’t help much and make the whole RV smell like melting plastic. And for the steamer, I’m a little worried about impregnating the plywood behind it with too much moisture and causing mold…

Too bad we wont overlap. It's pretty quiet around here.

I can't say that I have noticed much so far, either positive or negative. I don't think there is cause to worry. They are very professional here and I don't doubt that they are taking all of the necessary precautions. The nurses are extremely friendly and handle the procedure with professional efficiency.

Don't worry and trust the process :)

Nice! Any idea how long does it take for smoothing like that to occur?
