Anyone have trimethylaminuria (fish breath/burps) with kidney problems?

On September 1st, 2022 I had my right kidney removed due to a cancerous tumor growing out of it.

Five weeks later, I now have trimethylaminuria. It causes my breathe and burps to smell like bad fish. Does anyone else have this problem? What did you do about it? Thank you.

NWRobin, I have had awful breath and bad gas over the last year when my kidney function declined. Wondered the same thing.

I'm sorry Wunderkid that you've had the awful breath and bad gas for a year.

It was recommended that I take a supplement "Bile Force" by Prairie Naturals, that contains Lipase, and

Pancreatic enzymes (Amylase, Lipase, Protease), Slippery Elm. But please do not take any supplements without consulting a licensed naturopath. My kidney surgeon nor my family doctor had no information or solution for me. I hope this information may help you.

Thank you for your reply, NWRobin.

Will look into Bile Force.
