Hi @margar1, at one point in my digestive issues and pharmaceuticals were no longer an option (long story of 3 endoscopies and putting on drugs with side effects I was experiencing), I decided on my own I needed to do something to get relief. Following some others journeys and what they had done, I decided I had nothing to lose and went dairy free, gluten free and sugar free. After about 2 weeks, I started feeling better - my digestion improved, acid reflux was going away, my energy was returning. During those 2 weeks, I did research on functional medicine and pursued treatment via that medical field. Testing results revealed I was gluten intolerant, I had SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), and a fungus. I was also told that my hypothyroidism was definitely Hashimoto's - an auto immune disorder. So the changes I had started on my own were actually helping. Hope this info helps and wishing you the best.
