SIBO and asthma like symptoms

Hi I was diagnosed with methane SIBo last week, and I'm very constipated, have swollen glands and many other symptoms.

When I started to get my SIBO symptoms my glands started to swell they're just hard and don't hurt. I went to the doctor about it and he just said that it was to do with stress and nothing else.

My gLands have been like this for a long time, and I'm wondering if they're to do with SIBO and leaky gut as I've read up and this is possible.

Also when my stomach pain started I began getting really short of breath and now im still short of breath most of the time when I sit down and only sometimes when I'm standing up. Could this be to do with swollen glands in my chest or just maybe asthma. SIBO and asthma are closely linked also.

Lastly, in the last 3 days my right side of my collar bone has a swollen lumpy bit of bone on it, near where it joins to the shoulder. I don't know what this is, but it hurts a bit.

Could the breathing be asthma, or maybe because I'm reslly constipated all the time?

It sounds like you may well have a nervous component behind all that. I explain my theory in this article: sickofibs.com/ibs-symptoms/...
