C. diff, SIBO and chronic nausea

Posted by jillannw @jillannw, Dec 25, 2018

I started 8 months ago with either food poisoning or a stomach flu. I have never recovered. I have had every test done and continue to suffer from nausea everyday. In the middle of this I was diagnosed with and treated for c-diff twice but because I didn’t have the classic symptoms the drs at Mayo thought they were false positives. I also was diagnosed and treated for SIBO twice. The nausea everyday which is where this all started never went away. Has anyone had this and come up with a solution?

It's on the bottle (picture I've had attached at the very beginning of our exchange. I think is Agastache Tummy Formula Syrup. The same name that you used in Amazon.

I can’t find where I looked it up on Amazon. Could you please give me the whole name one more time? Thank you.

I am chemical sensitive ….. which means there are a lot of drugs .. prescription and over the counter that I cannot tolerate. Many I am alleric to. So I have to find other ways to help my body. When I was a preteen my mom gave me Emetrol .. hopeful I spelt it correctly .. for nausea. I think it was something new at the time. It worked. I cannot remember when or why I stopped taking it. Zofran sometimes works. Now it has some weird flavor that seems to make the nausea worse.

The Reliefband .. I did not have much hope for .. it suprised me and helped. It works much like a TENS unit. Between stomach issues and vertigo I tend to get nauseous often (has happened since childhood .. I will be 73 soon).

We don't have an acupuncturist in this area. I've always wanted to try it. A veterinarian here had an acupuncturist for dogs .. I thought about asking for an appointment. 😂

Golden Flower Agastache Tummy Syrup.

I started with half teaspoon twice a day, but if the nausea is unbearable, you can put drops under your tongue several times until the nausea stops. And when I say "nausea" I mean the motion sickness symptoms or the morning sickness symptoms that by the way I had 24/7 for about 3 months when I was expecting .

Good luck.

Thank you so much for your help! Have you been to one of the Mayo Clinic’s, and did they help you?

In Florida. I was referred to her by the discharging physician from hospitalization.

I would ask around for recommendations and I would search in the Internet for acupuncture services in your area (as far as you’re willing to travel). I would look for the reviews and their education. Mine is a PhD. The average charge per session is $100, and there’s a discount if you take a package of 10 sessions.

She helps me we my gastric issues. When I saw her the first time I would see her 3/wk, I was supposed to reduce my sessions gradually but when I got better I stopped my visits. Then I got very sick in December so I started seeing her once a week in January, while she helped me with the bloating, nausea, diarrhea/constipation, anxiety and I don’t remember what else, I got better but I still had the motion sickness symptoms. I mentioned to her about 5 weeks ago, that’s when she prescribed me the syrup. My weekly acupuncture sessions, herbs and the syrup worked together, but I think the syrup stopped the constant cycle of motion sickness symptoms. Right now I feel normal. I had my session today, and I will have my next one next Monday and we will assess if I should start going every 10 days and so on until I go just once a month. This time I will follow hers instructions. I’m also starting functional medicine next week.

When you say motion sickness issues, do you mean nausea? I have severe chronic nausea daily. Thank you for your help.

I don't use the rechargeable one. I use the one with replaceable batteries .. no cord. Reliefband Classic. I see the price has gone up .. my last one was 3-4 years ago. It is my second one. Usually at the bottom of the page Amazon will list similar items that probably work just as well at a lower price.

This is the official Amazon site for Reliefband. I think they have a regular store website they can be bought at.
