Thank you all for this valuable information. The Mayo gastroenterologist did do a hydrogen breath test twice and confirmed SIBO both times. There was no mention of a fructose or lactose intolerance hydrogen breath test. There was no referral to a nutritionist either, only a recommendation to try pelvic therapy, which has been nonproductive after months of therapy.

If by “pelvic therapy” you mean the pelvic floor exercises, biofeedback etc., my primary care doctor referred me for that awhile back after months of diarrhea with then no diagnosis of its cause. The therapist was extremely knowledgeable, caring and well trained in pelvic floor dysfunction therapy. Of course The therapy didn’t do anything to stop the diarrhea and at the time I didn’t think it was helpful. But now I am glad I went through the therapy because I have much better control when I feel an attack coming on—no more “accidents” while searching for a bathroom. So maybe your therapy hasn’t been totally unproductive.

Hi:
So you go to Mayo to see a GI Doctor and he says to Pelvic Therapy. What a stupid fool
