Are you having any stomach issues?

Is there any current discussion on this

Yes gurling sounds and pain

My dentist said that bad breath is caused by food stuck between the teeth – as it putrefies and grows bacteria, it smells awful. I brush and floss every night before I go to bed and I never have bad breath or "morning breath". BTW, I also don't get cavities since I started brushing and flossing every night. Peggy

I was just wondering about SIBO since I noticed when I get it (I have gastroparesis) and I have what I call the fart burps normally that’s when I have SIBO along with stomach pains and other issues.

whenever i talk to people i see them scratching their nose or rubbing it, i know i have bad breath but this happens whenever i just finished brushing, and gargling my teeth, and scrubbed my tongue, but i feel that the smell doesn’t come from inside my mouth but from a deeper or from my stomach. Also, whenever i’m inside a car and i yawn or if i talk that people think that there’s feces inside the vehicle. pls pls help! it is embarrasing. thank you

HI @docjay1961 that must be so frustrating to have this poor breath. You may have noticed I moved your post to this discussion you started so that all your post will be in one place.

I'd like to tag fellow Connect member @bbjaide to see if they come back to join in on the discussion.

Back to you @docjay1961 have you gotten any suggestions from you doctor or dentist?

I have had an endoscopic, colonoscopy, on meds for gerd, treated for bacterial infection, blood work, nasal surgery, several doctor visits

Yes, i visit the dentist every 3 months, use a water puc, floss,

Still poop breath

How are you handling it

Any relief

I usually get ahold of my primary doctor and he prescribes me a antibiotic for the SIBO and that usually takes care of it till the next time I get it.
I know they have tests for SIBO but since I am on nexium and Zantac I am more prone to getting it.
My husband has asked me if I’ve farted and I’m like no I just burped. Which gave me a chuckle even though it’s not funny,gotta see humor where I can.
Usually like I think I said I usually get lots of stomach pain and gas and bloating when I have the SIBO.
I too brush my teeth regularly and visit dentist for my checkup and all that.

Thank you so much for this reply I don't think I've been tested for sibo but I'm going to call my doctor tomorrow and set it up

Oh good. A place to start anyway right?
Sorry I didn’t see you replied to me. My messages keep going to spam when I get them from mayo.
