May 8th
It was great to be home and back in my bed. I was not having too many problems with sleeping. I was definitely not myself though. It takes a while to get my tummy back on track. My mom was desperately trying to find out more information on SIBO and how we can avoid from this happening again. Mom joined two different SIBO groups on Facebook. There are over 8,000 members. Mom was looking to others for advice and we were also hoping that we could find a Naturopathic Doctor who could help us. Naturopathic doctors are not cheap! One doctor we found charged $7,000 for a three month program. We found someone that was recommended out of Colorado, and mom scheduled a video chat with her. She suggested some supplements and a prokinetic called Iberogast. This is a herbal remedy out of Germany and helps with the symptoms of SIBO. I am going to stay on my formula for a while and not eat my chicken and potatoes until after six weeks of the antibiotic I was taking. It is a long road to getting myself back a 100% but I know I can do it!
After being home for 10days my mom left for Texas to go to my cousin Casey’s wedding. It was something she had planned for a while! Dad gave her the thumbs up to go and she left for 5 days while Dad and Naty took excellent care of me! I was getting better each day and hoping it stays that way.
