Breath smells like faeces (Poo)

Hello IAMCURED, how did the doc find the nodule? i've had sonograms, CAT scan but want to make sure I'm not missing something else.

Thanks..

Have hiatus hernia? No

Had endoscopy or colonoscopy done? Yes, but nothing abnormal

Digestion changes? Not going as often as I should

feeling of something stuck in throat? Yes, but only when laying down. I do have sleep apnea, been on cpap therapy for the last 3 years

difficutly passing gas or NOT burping? No problem in this department.

Might want to add that I am not overweight. Been active most of my adult life. Have a stress free lifestyle

THANK YOU Leofta for your response!!

someone else (forgot the username) has hiatus hernia. I suspect the hiatus hernia is not sealing things and causing an opening where gases/ vapors escape esophagus and we breath out.

Stress- has caused me to breath this odor out constantly.

Diet- helped but no matter how clean I eat the odors escape.

immune system- finding a good probiotic to help rebuild from taking anti-bi...

feeling of something stuck- I've read is caused by acid reflux. In my case I do have stomach ulcers, chronic gastritis, hiatus hernia but no matter how healthy I eat I get this feeling. It has decreased with two stomach meds my GI gave me & waiting for my follow up with him.

Also DIGESTIVE ENZYMES have helped with most of my sympthoms. Returns when I STOP: the probiotic, d. enzyz, or stomach meds.

I've concluded in my case, finding a SET SCHEDULE to eat on time, drink water (still figuring out but HIGHER PH water helps), complete bowel movement in the morning (as soon as I wake up).  When to take the probiotic (I do evenings but I drink a little keflir yogurt with my bfast and odor is not all day but odor returns on an empty stomach.

Chris how do you know when the odour is away or when it comes back? I have never been able to smell my own odour?

I don't have any of the symptoms you mention either.

Hello loobs,

Since I had my tonsils removed I smell my odor, when I breath out. it varies if I am in a humid room or cold area. On the train, I notice when my mouth is dry. It smells like poo, wet dog, unwashed body part. The remarks of people are looking at my shoes or staring at me to see where the odor is coming out from me. It does annoy me but I don't make eye contact with anyone because I am usually reading something on my phone. I have also breathed into a dry plastic cup and was able to smell how bad the odor I breath out. One time I was talking to a friend, she did not eat all morning and when she spoke to me her breath smelled like unwashed body part. I asked her if she ate she said she was on an empty stomach. She did have h.plori years ago, and hernia (operated) but still breaths out this odor when she doesn't eat. she is usually chewing gum so I don't notice the odor but when I chew gum or mouth mint I breath out horrible odors. I know we will figure this out. We may not all have the same sypmthoms because all bodies are different but we must find common denominator for the cause of this!

Ok I have tried for years but can't smell anything. My mouth feels horrible though and it's almost like I can taste its smelly. Plus my toddler tells me and people check their shoes when I speak.

I'm probably better not smelling how bad it is, that might make me not go over the door! 😂

.... or you might be pleasantly surprised! :-)The biggest issue for me is not knowing and it makes me totally paranoid. How can I address the problem if I don't know when is occurring?

Would be interested to know if this works for anyone. 

Thanks anyway
