Good topic..bro.. You need to be your own doctor.. and find out what sets you off.. Stress is a big factor as l have said this before... Did you have a lot of stress in your life before your lBD...?
Cheers aaron - Haha yes that's the dream in the future, definitely to be my own doctor and not a mainstream one! Stress is massive in a physiological sense to bringing on flares. I was a very relaxed and chilled guy during the last years of school when my IBD came about. The only 2 real big stressors I think contributed to it were: long distance hikes carrying loads of weight in a poorly fitted rucksack and multiple travel immunisations received in a short period of time
Thanks for all the great information Chris nice video I got sick got h pylori doctor gave me triple therapy three times never been the same since I have extreme swelling in my stomach mine swells up without food so it's hard for me to figure out what's foods aggravating it my stomach is swelling so up so much is pushing my stomach in my liver into my chest area it also gave me a hernia it makes the most pain when I'm standing up only able to stand up for 5 minutes been confined to my house for 5 years I was 62 years old when I got sick I sure wanted to get this when I was young gut diseases are the worst I know you've been through a lot
Robert, apart from the h.pylori bit there, you've literally described my last 5 years almost to a tee. I had an abundance of symptoms that came about following triple IV antibiotic therapy for a 'fluid collection'. A couple of the most debilitating symptoms were the inability to stand upright for more than 10 minutes or so, and a swollen abdomen, with or without food. You're definitely not alone with those symptoms you're getting mate, do you also experience things like poor circulation, poor temperature regulation and a very low tolerance to any forms of stress?
@@ChrisGascoigne1 your condition was much worse than mine why does just hurting from the extreme pressure is putting everywhere's it gets better when I lay down some of the pressure will come off my stomach that's why I'm stuck up in my room I can't find out how to fix this thing
Hi iSY3D I think FMT can be hit and miss for sufferers of IBD. I think it's more likely to have a beneficial impact for those with Ulcerative colitis who's large colon is the issue. However for those with bacterial overgrowths/translocation in the small intestine, I don't think FMT is going to resolve it
I have abdominal noises especially at night and I also have abdominal noise after. That noises are produced by SIBO or gas byproducts? Are Eggs included sulphur rich food such broccoli Brussels sprouts all brassica vegetables?
I think the gas is most likely a by-product from the sulphur rich foods reacting with the SIBO Abdi. Eggs and brassica vegetables have huge amounts of sulphur amino acids in them, definitely problematic foods for those with this issue!
@@ChrisGascoigne1 definitely you're right 100%. Scientifically Sibo are collection of different groups of microbial species make pathogenic and normal flora staying in the wrong organ formed plastic biofilm is hard broken, especially in small intestine is almost and then SIBO created a havoc of issues malabsorption glucose. Protein and even Fat because they digest our food up higher in small intestine. So we can't get chance to do this process before they release enzymes to detect what of food are coming down they are smarter than us and read every single substance with their DNA molecular structure
Hi Chris, I've just receive my GI Map results and I don't know what should I do with them as my doctor ignore this type of test. Could you please take a lot at them and give me some tips? Thank you
Hi Chris my son gets gassy after food and X-rays show up acidity it’s seems he maybe needs a test to confirm do you if the sugar sachets for testing are safe for IBS patients ? Also what do you do address of tests prove
This is a great list, AND I do still feel pretty strongly that testing is important. The treatment varies depending on which type of SIBO you have, and you can't tell this without testing...
Thanks for your comment Confluence Nutrition - absolutely! The breath test could distinguish between hydrogen, sulphur and hydrogen sulphide producing species, but even the GI MAP test looks into even more detail when it comes to the exact species and their counts. I'm still very much on the fence about treatment, personally I'm not a massive fan of the antibiotics approach or even the natural herbs approach - many things that have helped me involve some of the basics: exercise, breathing and also functional neurologic-based activities; but of course, every case might be different!
im starting to think my GI issues are from stress because before i didn't have any symptoms and i have been thinking back like you said and when it first started i was having a lot mental stress because after a while any little thing at work would bug me .
