My G.I. doctor says it’s too hard to test for SIBO
Can you recommend any test kits?
He wants to just put me on the anabiotic Xifaxan trial for SIBO/IBS D 550 mg three times for 14 days, without knowing for sure, what kind of SIBO I have if I have it at all.
I have mild symptoms
But have been on high dose PPIs for three years.
I have the ATM gene mutation and I’m on PC surveillance.
My CA19.9 is checked every three months and looks like a roller coaster, my latest # being 71
Any thoughts on where I can go to be tested would be appreciated. Thank you. Judy
