Hi, I recently spoke with a specialist who offers mentoring services. He told me that the only viable long-term approach is to improve my gut flora a bit by adding specific strains.

In my case, I underwent a 6-month treatment with minocycline and omeprazole (for acne; had I known what it would lead to, I wouldn't have taken anything); that treatment was in 2023.

And gradually, I ended up with hydrogen sulfide SIBO; I have a terrible body odor.

Has anyone spoken to this specialist? Which strains do they recommend introducing gradually?

Since I have H2S-reducing bacteria, what would you recommend?

I spoke with a biochemist. He told me that using antibiotics or antifungals is counterproductive in the long run, since it leads to resistance. The recommended path is the more laborious one: changing my diet and repopulating and multiplying beneficial bacteria—and in a year, I’ll be fine. Honestly, I’m exhausted by dealing with the stench I give off; I smell like a skunk. I’m thinking about taking the antibiotics and antifungals, and then carefully repopulating and nurturing my microbiome.

In my country, healthcare is either expensive or inefficient in this regard. Gastroenterologists aren't very well-versed in these conditions. They prescribed me medication without running the important tests—partly because I don't have access to them, and also because I'm struggling a lot socially.

A restrictive diet doesn't work. I still smell bad. It's very frustrating. Did it work for you guys?

Any home remedy for the symptoms? I drink "clavo de olor" and ginger infusions.

Do you recommend anything?

Desconozco si existe clavo de olor en otras regiones. En LATAM es común

XOXO

Consumir un año de dos antibióticos diferentes familias > antibióticos hacen mal al hígado > hígado no poder procesar bilis > poca bilis no mata a bacterias y antibióticos matar bacterias buenas y malas > sibo y daño hepático > estoy jodido

Hi, I recently had a blood test (among other things). The only abnormal result was my bilirubin level, which was three times the ideal value. Could this be related to my general body odor? It’s described as smelling like rotten eggs, something acidic, and sometimes feces. Doctors don't seem to be helping me; either they aren't trained to handle these issues, or they don't view it as a problem. TY

Dicen que huelo ácido, que quemó sus pelos nasales.

Que verga lo originará. Me ayudan alguno con un patm similar

Una pregunta muy importante: ¿puede el SIBO causar un olor realmente fuerte y desagradable? ¿Tan fuerte como para que alguien al otro lado de la habitación lo huela? Estoy paranoica; no sé qué me pasa. Todos actúan como si oliera muy mal, pero yo no noto nada. Sin embargo, sí veo un patrón: la gente se queja más cuando tengo problemas estomacales más graves. Además, en esos días en que me siento mal, expulso mucosidad que huele a huevos podridos, aunque yo no lo huelo. Aparte de eso, no siento que mi cuerpo desprenda mal olor; me baño todos los días.

Edit: largo tratamiento con antibióticos + omeprazol

Algune rediturre que tenga sibo? Me cansé que me pasen en los hospitales.

Cómo lo van llevando?
