Hello there, I am sure there a quite a few posts on here previously about SIBO. If you go to the top right hand search box of the screen where there is a little blue smiley face and type in SIBO you will find that lots come up.

All my best

Hi

I'm on long term treatment for SIBO . I was extremely poorly with it for 2 years and got malnourished until it was discovered via a breath test, and it was methane induced.I take regular metronidazole for it, wiNystatin as the antibiotics give me thrush. I also take probiotics and my consultant says that my dairy free diet is helpful.
