Hello @amyp304

As I looked at the above website that you posted, it appears that you are dealing with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. Is this correct?

If so, we do have a discussion group regarding this. Here is the link, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/sibo-diet/?

If you would like to share more, please let us know a little bit about your history with this problem. For example, what are your symptoms, how long ago were you diagnosed, etc.?

I look forward to hearing from you again.

Honestly I don’t know 😩. Idk if any of the 9 diff Dr’s I have seen really know either. I’m really just doing internet research trying to find answers that I can ask them at my next appt. This daily pain and swelling every time I eat or drink is really depressing

I am waiting on avasive surgery date for removal of parastomal hernia (knuckle hernia) And have meal out in to strengthen my stomach walls so the intestine doesn’t keep trying to push thru. I am also going to wear hernia support belt ( which wasn't advised of doing after bladder removal) and surgeon is going to also do lysis scar tissue removal
The Parastomal hernia is pressing on uorostomy stoma and sometimes slows or blocks uterine output, within 24 hrs urine starts to crystallize and whala... UTI?!
I hope this helps and gives me some kinda relief
I will post again as I have know when surgery is scheduled
Thank all is you for all you’re support and kind words
