Could my microbiome be affected from this? SIBO, Reflux, Multiple antibiotics

I started to have symptoms of silent reflux in Feb 2024 and had extremely limited diet because of it. Still have them till this day, never found out what is causing them despite going to many doctors. Found out from testing that I had inactive mild chronic gastritis. I was prescribed two different PPIs for 2 months, which made reflux even worse. I suddenly developed SIBO symptoms that were causing weight loss, bloating and many other issues. Finally after a year was prescribed Rifaximine to treat SIBO in March 2025 , but didn't feel better. Suddenly got sick in May and was prescribed Augmentin. My SIBO symptoms were gone after that and I tested negative for it in June 2025. In August I got sick again (which was very unusual for me) and was prescribed Augmentin again. Late August I noticed stomach cramps and sudden sensitivity to supplements. 3 weeks after finishing Augmentin got sick again and was prescribed Suprax (completely new antibiotics for me). Found out that it was mild Covid. 12 days after finishing Suprax and covid symptoms ending - extreme health problems started (both physical and mental-irrational fears, it was from zero to hundred) . I found so many deficiencies and mineral imbalances that I'm still dealing with till this day. I started to have extremely sensitive stomach, started repeatedly reacting to more supplements (that I used to take without any problems back in 2023) with sudden nausea, gagging, stabbing pain, zero appetite..For which I was prescribed another PPIs for one month. I get nauseous SO easily and always feel full - even before eating anything. I recently contacted new clinic that is specialized in Gut microbiome and I'm currently waiting for appointment, but I was wondering if this was enough to alter my gut..I always thought that you have to have constant stomach pain to have stomach issues but I'm not so sure anymore.

Urgent prayer for healing needed

Hi, I'm so sorry for such a long post but I desperately need my prayers heard. I'm 26 years old and I suddenly developed many health problems last October because of doctor's negligence and incorrect treatments my health problems turned severe and incurable and I have been suffering mostly bed bound and house bound since December. In past 3 months the stress from being bed bound, in pain and everything was getting worse and I suddenly developed these extreme irritational fears and then 5 weeks ago intrusive thoughts. My mind keeps constantly scanning every thought for threats and turning everything into irrational fears or intrusive thoughts. I used to be so happy, full of love and positivity before my health problems started. Especially because I'd dealt with heart problems since childhood and was thankful that I was finally free of them last year. These fears have suddenly started getting worse and now I am incredibly scared to be even on my own because I am scared that I will hurt myself. I plan on going to a psychiatrist because it's getting scary and I truly don't want to lose my life, not after everything that I've been through. I keep blaming myself for going to a doctor because they ended up ruining my life with their negligence and it just feels horrible that I could have been healthy right now. I want my life back, I want this last year to have never even happened, I want chance at future, husband and family as my friends have. I keep praying and praying to God, angels and everyone I can think of and reading about so many amazing testimonies about miraculous healing and just desperately need to be worthy of one, too. I know that power is in faith and numbers. I was hoping that if someone else would pray for me, maybe God would hear us and heal me? My name is Miroslava, I would thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Magnesium that is completely neutral on energy?

Hi. I was wondering if someone could recommend magnesium that is completely neutral on energy. I have bad fatigue so any relaxing ones make it worse and I also suffer from insomnia so taking magnesium that can be energizing doesn't work for me. I currently take citrate but have to switch because of my silent reflux so any recommendations would be helpful. I read something about lactate?

Iron supplements causing balance issues and fatigue?

Does someone experience balance issues or fatigue when taking iron supplements? I used to tolerate iron supplements in the past without any issues and now anytime I take them on day 5-6 balance issues start and it keeps getting worse and then goes away when I stop taking iron. I started to have this weird intolerance back in October, but it was only causing shutdown fatigue, then I had IV iron which ruined me and I was bed bound for weeks with fatigue and balance issues. Now anytime I take iron on day 5-6 same thing happens. I have iron deficiency and I have heart problems that are only manageable when my iron is great. My copper deficiency was probably caused by extremely high zinc levels 205-212 or by SIBO that I had last year. I'm not sure. My copper is still under the range / borderline and my ceruloplasmin is low normal/borderline. I have been supplementing copper for 4 months now, my zinc got back to normal level 105.

Iron supplements causing balance issues and fatigue?

So I used to take iron for years without any problems, then stopped for year and half. Started to take them again and started to have shutdown fatigue on day 5 of taking them. Stopped supplements, had iron infusion and that messed me up badly with extreme fatigue and balance issues for weeks. Now anytime I take iron on day 5-6 I started to experience balance issues again with fatigue. Found out before my infusion that my zinc was 212(60-120) and copper 73 (80-155). Started to take copper and my zinc came down to 105 after 4 months of supplementing but my copper is still 70-73, ceruloplasmin is 0.22 (0.2-0.6). Can my sudden iron intolerance be because of the copper deficiency? I also experienced burning nerves episode for 5 weeks but that was before I started supplementing iron.

SP suddenly ignoring me, should I text him or not? Need advice

This is SP that I already manifested in the past, things were going extremely well, then my health suddenly got very bad and we haven't seen each other since. We were still in contact every day, over time he wasn't as affectionate as he was when we were seeing each other but we still talked every day. Suddenly a week ago he stopped answering me without any reason whatsoever. He answered once in the past week despite being constantly online. My mind is starting to spiral. My self concept was AMAZING before, but ever since my health got bad, my self concept followed it. I really don't want to lose him, he has been in my life for years and we were even talking about our future. It's been few days since he last answered, last message he said sorry about being busy which I know isn't true. What should I do? Part of me wants to text him just to confront him with goodbye message but I don't know if I should just ignore him as he is ignoring me? He stopped watching my stories and then started looking at them again yesterday, but he stopped liking anything I post which he always did.
