[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can try a course of Xifaxan, if that has never been done. I know you said you avoid dairy. How about artificial sweeteners? Would get rid of any of that. I think low FODMAP can cause disordered eating, in the long-term. Try cholestyramine (without sugar). It is like drinking sand. If it is helpful, there are pills you can take instead. If no one has changed pancreatic elastase, you can do that. You need to take Imodium to have a formed stool sample. Gelcaps can give you loose stool. Would recommend a Vit D tablet and trial of avoiding gelcaps. I hope things get better![/quote] Thanks for this. I hear you about FODMAP and disordered eating. I struggled with this in my 20s and my mother, who had similar digestive issues, struggled her whole life. It was never about body dysmorphia or control, but when you’re so desperate for relief and food feels like the enemy, it can be hard to think of eating in a normal way.[/quote]
