100% WORKING TREATMENT for my IBS!

Hi, I am writing this to try to help everybody that I can because I have been on the same boat as you guys and gone through this living hell for 3 years!!!  Short description about my previous case was that I could almost eat nothing, only eat what is normally designated for IBS menu, I was always feeling that I had to go to the Bathroom, I would have IBS-D attacks daily, even taking a lot of Imodium would not work totally, painful bowel cramps, the whole works… I could go on with the list…but you guys already know what are the symptoms from personal experience.

Doctors give this autoimmune disease the name of IBS because they are totally clueless of why this happens, so they just grab all the symptoms and put them in one bag calling it IBS… to me it is just the doctors another way of saying they are clueless but they don´t want to show it to us so they won´t look bad.

Dr. Pimentel who has come up with the theory about SIBO is the cause makes me think that he is correct, this is the only one doctor that had a clue.

Now for the Treatment that I used daily :

From 10 gram to 30 grams of L-Glutamine, to repair the damaged intestinal mucosa and lining. Repairing this will block big food particles from entering the blood stream directly due to the holes in the intestinal lining cause by the bad bacteria.

 12 billion Probiotic daily at least, start by using the 50 billion probiotic and then after seeing results you may try to decrease to cheaper probiotics, but don´t go below 10 billion.

Using the SIBO treatment first if desired:

Use Xifaxan ( Rifaximin) antibiotic to wipe out the bad bacteria but this will also wipe out the good bacteria ( check for Dr. Pimentel’s SIBO treatment). While you are doing this, I advise you to take probiotics daily to compensate the bacterial slaughter in the intestines. You can also start L-Glutamine ate the same time to repair the intestinal mucosa and Lining.

After the Xifaxan Treatment, keep on taking the heavy duty 50 billion probiotic daily and glutamine. After getting better, you may try to change the dosages of L-Glutamine and Probiotics and see how you adapt to lower dosages to try to save money.

Since many if not all IBS people are prone to getting E.Coli overgrowth again, you will have to keep on taking L-Glutamine and Probiotics for the rest of your life. I am on this treatment for 1 year and now I eat Pizza, Junk food, Spicy food, drink sodas and Coca-Colas and am totally normal as I was before. I will not say I am cured because it must be an auto-immune disease, but you may keep it in check and be 100% normal by just taking this for the rest of you days ( L-Glutamine and Probiotics).

I have tried previously all know medications for IBS, Antidepressants, anxiolytics , antispasmodics, tried acupuncture, etc. and I was only 30% better, because this medicines do not fix the problem, the just drug your gut to numbness…

This treatment will take around 6 months to reach 100% improvement, but you will notice improvements after 2 months, so be patient.

Good Luck to all and may god help you!

    All,

    I feel your pain--Boy Howdy! Many trips to the ER for non relenting abdominal pain, alternating B and C. My diet is gluten free, no dairy, low fat, no fruits/veggies/seeds/nuts. I live on steamed rice with a couple slices of tofu and ginger/soy sauce for months with a squirt of line juice in the hopes of preventing scurvy since (I get no vitamins (hurt my stomach too much!). Take Probiotics, Acacia fiber, peppermint capsules multiple times daily. Still have IBS attacks. I've been to so many GIs (including the Mayo clinic) and talk about clueless. Thank God for forums like this where people can share what's worked for them (and what--please God!--might work for me).

    No medicine helps once an attack starts (except hospital administered IV pain meds) an nothing prescribed has ever slowed this misery down. I live in fear of my next attack (which no doubt contributes to the attacks). No life. No friends. I keep thinking I'm nothing but a burden to my family (although they never say that to me--always very loving and supportive. Still...)  Thinking hard about whether it's really worth sticking around if this is what my life is going to be like (I'm only 23 and totally house bound with this IBS curse).

    Sorry about the whining. It just gets really hard sometimes to see any hope. From reading the posts, I know the people on this forum have been through the same so you'll understand.

    So here's my question: can anyone tell me how many teaspoons (tablespoons?) of L-glutamine I should start with? I'm not so good at translating grams into a measuring spoon.

    Also, I've heard good things about slippery elm--anyone here tried it? Results? How much to start with? And can I take it with the L Glutamine or not?

    Desperate for a little relief and some hope.

    Thanks and best wishes to all.

      Hey luanne07106 - I feel so bad reading your comment, but you seriously are NOT alone. I'm here in your same situation at the age of 22. I'm on here trying to search for some ways to helps with all these tummy issues we all share, clearly. I wanted to reply to tell you, You are Not Alone. Don't ever question or wonder that. I know it's hard, especially in the lonely quiet times (been there!!! sucks) Just focus on the at least "better" days. I will pray for you. My faith keeps me going and shows me I am here for a purpose. You're blessed to have a supporting family. Don't ever question that. It is beyond worth sticking around and seeing what life has to offer you. There's so many things you can do for work at home and I know you'll find something to make you feel relieved. Don't give up on the Hope. If I can't, you can't neither!! Lol! I feel you 100% on it all, trust me. I'm living the same things with ya. But, now I see there's sooooo many more around the world in our same positions. Good luck girl. Stay strong, please. I'm going to pray for you and us all!! smile Feel better.

      Hi, i have been busy lately, so sorry for the late reply to all. I will try to answer everybody on the following days. No for your questions, start with one tea spoon in the morning of L glutamine and another at night ( 5 grams per spoon) and also add high dose probiotics to this daily ( at least 10illion per capsule). This treatment will very slowly heal your guts and most likely yoy will only see the results increasing very slow in a few months because the gut walls take a very long time to heal according to the amount of damage already inflicted. Taking Rifamaxin ( antibiotic) in the begining may help increase the speed of the treatment because it kills of all the bad bacteria. For full details and more information, please read al the posts. I have faith that this treatment will be your cure like it has been to me and others. Stick to the treatment for months and do not give up because the reults wil take time to show. Good luck

    Maurice did you consume any refined sugars like regular white table sugar while you were doing this healing process? OR did you wait until you were fully healed and refrained from any refined sugar?

      Yes i did, but you will have to see if your body does not get worse if you try. Because it may vary from person to person.

      So you did consume white sugar during this time........ was there a certain a mount you consumed, in other words did you limit your sugar intake, or did it not matter in your case?

      I hear people say sugar feeds bad bacteria, but my theory is if you consume enough probiotics like you did, this will combat the sugar.

      ok thank you, you drank fruit juices that contained sugar in it though? and ate refined white table sugar?

      Im trying to be as clear as possible because people make many cflaims that you can't heal IBS without cutting out all sugar, but you proved that to be wrong in your case.

      I did not avoid any sugars. I did drink alot of apple juice before and during my treatment, so i do not beleive in the theory that starving yourself from sugar is the answer to kill off the bacteria. There will always be bacteria that will survive. You best chance to kill them off is by fighting against them with probiotics wherebthe good bacteria will go into war against the bad bacteria or with antibiotics. But of course you will need l glutamine to heal your guts from the already inflicted damage.

      Hi Maurice.

      Not good update for me I'm afraid.

      Was feeling really good and the l glutamine seemed to be helping up until 2 weeks ago. I don't really know what happened but ended up having to come home from work early as I felt really bad. A couple of days later I had major diahrrea it felt like food poisoning. Anyway I've eat gluten free, no fizzy drinks, no coffee or tea and seemed to improve. I've been abroad for a week and eat very very healthy... My symptoms drastically improved. Anyway... Had a take away 2 days ago (haven't had any gluten, coffee, fizzy drinks etc before or after) and I'm not feeling right. Things are tender. I've pretty much confirmed now that gluten and sugary fizzy drinks are causing my ibs issues.

      I don't really know what to do next. Stick with the diet, l glutamine and probiotic? Take digestive enzymes?

      The anxiety thing has also returned which is annoying. Unfortuneatly I've taken a few steps back with my ibs.

      I find this whole thing really frustrating. There are soo many possibilities I'm doubting whether I've missed something obvious here. I was convinced that I had developed SIBO... Everything matches... I had a high sugar high carb diet before I had ibs. Had loads of sugary drinks, pizza etc which explains the SIBO thing. I had antibiotics a few months ago which cleared up my ibs symptoms for 3 months... Then they returned (another symptom of SIBO). My belly looks bloated after a heavy meal, I get that gnawing pain after certain meals and have a gluten sensitivity which are also signs of sibo.

      On the flip side all those symptoms could be gastritis, candida, gluten sensitivity or coeliac, h-pylori, stomach ulcer?????

      God this is frustrating.

      Hi, from what i can understand, you may have had some sort of food Poisoning. Food poisoning may last days or maybe more. My sister had one of those food poisonings last year and it lasted a week at least, and she has no ibs. Just hang in inon the and it should go away when your body recovers. You are also talking abour candida, so you are a girk right? Sorry but i cannot tell from the nicknames on this blog. If you are a female, my advice is for you to take a different type of probiotics that is also for the vaginal flora. There are probiotics more indicated for women which both work on the bowel and vaginal flora. If you have candidiase, then you will have to take care of that too because both vaginal and bowel flora unbalance is interconnected. I have already told this to MsGregor by message and told her which brand to try out as an example.
