Digestive Issue: Gut dysfunction following traumatic brain injury

Totally second what @techi Lisa said about going to Mayo. For 4 years I have been getting the run around from gastroenterologist here in Michigan as to why I have diarrhea. Their solution is live with it and live on lomotil. No diagnosis or testing. Came to the Clinic for 8 days and have an answer to that and two other issues that have had me in great pain.

That is so nice to hear. My father had a TBI in 2020 and is recovering but with lots of gastro-intestinal issues. I wonder with all the antibiotics he’s been on, he needs probiotics. But wonder if there are other solutions. Are you allowed to share what helped you? He is in Boston, and I don’t think we can bring him all the way to the Mayo Climic to be evaluated. He needs 24 hour care and travel is very hard as he is also 84 years old.
