Does anyone have chronic constipation?

I had chronic constipation for 3 years. I read about bad gut biome in longcovid people. I ordered a GI Map test (stool sample at home and send back)
My results showed sepsis! Candida and various other bacteria in my gut. Had to take Doxycycline to heal the sepsis and probiotics (similase, berberine and Akkermansia) That regulated my gut and alleviated my constipation!

Yikes, with sepsis a bit of constipation would be the least of your problems. Just glad you caught it and treated it. All the best.

Do you know if i can get a GI map test done by a GI doctor instead of ordering the test since it's so expensive.
