Re: Probiotics

Don't worry, u are not going mad, i posted this on a couple of boards because SIBO is not listen anywhere else, but its most related to candida.  

The symptoms of SIBO include: (and I have all of the below plus lots of intolerances)

• excess gas,
• abdominal bloating and distension,
• diarrhea, and
• abdominal pain.

A small number of patients with SIBO have chronic constipation rather than diarrhea. When the overgrowth is severe and prolonged, the bacteria may interfere with the digestion and/or absorption of food and deficiencies of vitamins and minerals may develop. Weight loss also may occur. Patients with SIBO sometimes also report symptoms that are unrelated to the gastrointestinal tract, symptoms such as body aches or fatigue. The symptoms of SIBO tend to be chronic. A typical patient with SIBO can experience symptoms that fluctuate in intensity over months, years, or even decades before the diagnosis is made.

yes, it is a battle, but i seem to have finally turned a corner now and am on the mend slowly.

May the Force be with you
