I have Parkinson’s, RA, previously on long term triple antibiotics for MAC lung infection. Frequent chronic diarrhea , urgency, gas, abdominal distension- worse some days- haven’t figured out correlation with diet. I know people with PD have altered microbiome and there is probable gut brain connection in PD. Interested in potential role or harm of FODMAP diet or pre/probiotics but the subject a bit complex and I am in search of clinical guidance but not finding much on internet. I’d like to optimize my gut health to minimize its negative impact on my PD and brain. Any direction appreciated.
