Good idea on the second consult. I’m wondering if you take anything for the cramping? Here is a link to some RX meds but there are also OTC meds such as gas-x post meals. Also, with your meals do you use any digestive enzymes or probiotics? A dietitian can help get you going on those. With SIBO you want to get on the proper ones.

I only waited a week between my 2nd 2 week treatment with Xifaxin. I can’t say I’m confident I no longer have SIBO, but I am much improved.
Your dietitian will likely suggest a food diary which in addition to the foods you eat and quantity, your reaction and timing. I’d suggest starting that now as you may start to see patterns. I like your plan of following an anti-inflammatory diet.
Question regarding chills; that is not a symptom I’ve experienced.
Good sleep is so important. While it isn’t the most comfortable, I did sleep elevated as much as possible during severe reflux times. I also didn’t eat past 7pm or have caffeine, alcohol or spicy foods. It’s amazing how certain foods can affect our health.
Best to you.
