Re: TMAU- My story..getting through it

I'm starting lab tomorrow and I'm really really upset like not able to sleep upset. 6 hours I have to be around people and my odor is not like fish or where people won't say anything. No it's this explosive rotten egg odor, yesterday like sweaty socks and scalp, mixed with stale coffee breath and fart. It starts in class and goes off every fifteen minutes when I'm near strangers. It's less when I'm by myself or in unembarrasing situations. I was normal my whole life and I'm 22 now. I developed this at 21 a few months ago. I think it was caused by an infection in my intestines. I believe I have type 2 TMAU. I'm trying to focus on graduating, but it's hard. I smell so bad in class I make myself sick. Tweet
