Hi @brayimee, welcome back. I am sorry to hear that your mental health is bad. I sincerely hope you are speaking with your medical care team and ensuring that gets resolved.
You will notice that I moved your inquiry to an ongoing discussion about SIBO so that you can connect with people that are having similar issues and perhaps find a member with successful treatment. I see that you are having some pain associated with a lump near your belly button too. Have you requested for the physician to check for a hernia? Is the lump always there or does it come and go?

Hello Amanda,

Thank you for for moving my inquiry. I'm happy to get any advice I can. This SIBO is debilitating.
I am currently seeing a therapist during treatment.
The lump is typically always there, sometimes large and sometimes small. My PT thinks I may have motility issues from SIBO and surgery. I see the GI again next week and hope the lump is prominent so we can schedule an ultrasound. Nothing ever showed on CT, but.. That spot was in very bad pain last year that sent me to ER. ER doctor said muscle, but I feel that is not the case. I guess I'm just not sure.
