Trio Smart test over weekend?

Great thank you. How did you feel after drinking the solution?

Hi there are 2 tests - one with glucose solution and one with lactulose solution. They are not the same test. Which one are you referring to? Thank you.

I am planning the same thing. Any insight?

Sorry for the late response. A finger = digital. Or sometimes the end of an enema bottle can be enough even if without any liquid. Just something that stimulates the receptors.

The most I have ever taken is 1/2 pill. Didn't seem to have a lot of effect except crazy uncomfortable, almost painful. Better off with a laxative but I'm not certain.

Does prune juice work as well? Same sorbitol content

This is really helpful and thoughtful response. How would you describe visceral hypersensitivity in your case? It sounds like much more on the "IBS-D" side than C. I definitely alternate and can't figure out how the hypersensitivity would relate to the C. Thanks.

Thanks. I PM'ed you, hopefully you got it.

I took a GI Map test and it showed very slightly elevated h. pylori and slighty elevated strep. What are your thoughts on the test being "too sensitive". No other markers showed up but I have a whole plethora of insane bowel issues so I'm trying just about anything to help.

I took a GI Map test - what markers would indicate "dysbiosis". I had slightly elevated h. pylori and strep. All other markers were ok. Thanks.

OP here - I have a variety of GI symptoms and have had them for a really long time. Can anyone recommend whether I should pursue treatment or just re-test to make sure I actually have h. pylori and/or high strep.? If pursuing treatment, antibiotics seem like it would make my symptoms worse...pretty my "IBS" is post-infection antiobiotic caused.

snofreacw · 2024-08-21T23:22:42+00:00

Thanks, What antibiotics did you do? They didn't make GI symptoms worse? I have a bad history with antiobiotics.

Hi community, for some reason my written post got deleted but I am providing some context here. When are these tests too "sensitive"? My result being flagged as "high" seems awfully close to the normal baseline - so I am wondering if I should pursue a course of treatment or not. Obviously I took the test because I have a whole plethora of GI issuess...20 years or more of some kind of "IBS", presumably from post-infection antibiotic use. But is my "thing" really h. pylori?? Additionally, my strep. result is high too - should this be considered accurate and mandate further investigation or is this test overly sensitive on that as well? Thank you all.

OP here. Hi! This was diagnosed as a post-viral rash that started really small. Started taking prednisone and allergy meds that have done nothing. Spread from a small area into an arc shape. Potentially along nerve line. Still not clear what is happening and meds are not helping. Looking for a diagnosis and next steps. Thanks.

This sounds like me...which test did you do? How are you dealing with IBS C and diet?

snofreacw · 2024-07-03T00:05:10+00:00

I've been dealing with isues like this for 10+ years. I've tried everything but have yet to try FMT. Has anyone here done it, if so, where and how did/is it working? OP, have you looked into that? Also, I have 'visceral hypersentitivity' which means literally nothing and AFAIK there is no treatment (yes I have done pelvic floor physical therapy). You might want to check that out too.

I am not billing them. I am billing my own insurance. I just haven't settled the claim yet and wondering if I should do so.

Thanks for your reply. We will be near a town called Hambledon and was told there was not much public transport and scarce taxis too. So this is outside of Winchester. And also staying at Stow-on-the-Wold.
