Did you take antibiotics ? Which ones ? How long?
Herbal treatments?
Which test did you do to know you had SIBO?
Thank you!

I took a breath test for the SIBO diagnosis. It tests the gases you exhale after a day of bland diet and then a dose of lactulose in the next morning. I exhaled methane which indicative of SIBI-C. I took Rifaximin for two weeks but it did not cure it. Helped with the nausea but not much.

I am about to try Rifaximin with Neomycin for two weeks to see if that can knock out the unhealthy bacteria overgrowth. You can get MUCH CHEAPER Rifaximin from online Canadian pharmacies. Perfectly legal. Have not tried herbal treatments but might some day. I have started using Nature's Secrets Colon Cleanse which is producing small bowel movements at the moment. It does not feel like a stimulant more like a prokinetic formula. Hope that helps.
