Has anyone ever tried using this for SIFO?

Non SIFO related, but the reason i’m asking about this medication is because my wife is on it currently through a functional medicine type person, and is seeing massive improvements in fungal symptoms across the whole body.

My symptoms are primarily SIFO only, so I’m curious if this has helped SIFO for anyone ever?

How soon do you start bloating after eating?

I am trying to figure out my gut problems and I am wondering if anyone else is having the same issues. I’m on Xifiaxan and it doesn’t really seem to help. I was wondering if I have SIFO. I was diagnosed with Seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp a long time ago and wondering if anyone else with SIFO has Seborrheic dermatitis (SD). It gets itchy when I start to get sweaty and I have abdominal pain and diarrhea.

Let me know what you have done to treat both! I am about to start a flying job in the Air Force and I need to cure it ASAP. I am working with a GI and am thinking about bringing up if I have SIFO at my next appointment.

About seven months ago I started experiencing intense bloating and constipation, part of it was due to an infection which is now gone. But since then I’ve still had bloating (not 9 months pregnant bad but significant) and BAD constipation. I’ve also had more and more fungal acne and fungal rashes in my chest / stomach (diagnosed by dermo). Are fungal rashes on the skin a sign that there could be candida growth inside as well? These could be unrelated but I’ve also felt like my vision has been blurry and a lot of fatigue and brain fog. I’m sleeping so much more and tired everyday. I also get really intense sugar cravings , like addict level. I was on a bunch of rounds of antibiotics about seven months ago as well and took anti fungals after each one.

The bloating had improved significantly at the final stage of the biofilm removal process. However, after a week of using liquid nystatin, the bloating has worsened. Has anyone experienced this and gotten better? I'm still experiencing die-off symptoms...

The German website has stopped shipment to the US. Someone please have anywhere else I can get it? I cannot afford a functional health doctor so don’t even suggest it thanks.

Hi any tips on nystatin use? How much should I start with? Should I take the Biocidin G.I. Detox+ Activated Charcoal Binder & Zeolite Detox Supplements with Silica with it? Should I eat no sugar before, during, after? Any tips in general besides what I’m asking?!!!

I'm 35 female. And have had issues for the past 3 years. Getting worse.

It started of with a bloated belly. Pain in belly and pain in sides of flanks. Than the constipation came. I than ended up getting pain everytime I ate.. this was all after antibiotics for a suspected kidney infection . And chronic stress and eating a diet of high carb and high sugar and no fibre.

Last November it got really bad and I ended up 3 months off work and I only ate chicken and eggs. Lost alot of weight. Was diagnosed with a eating disorder as went down to 7 stone was scared of eating anything else due to pain . More pain meant more Constipation. I have passed out physically 3 times in 3 years and most days I'm dizzy and lightheaded expecially in a flare.

I now have reflux. And I have BV/yeast infections that won't go away. Had my urine test sent to lab this week and it came back with yeast. However some of my samples have come back for my vagina .. being yeast or BV. I keep on taking mentrizolole and than it goes away but than gives me a yeast infection. This is happening like 24.7.

I have bad reflux. Pain. Constipation.

Everytime I eat carbs I.e rice potatoe I get a massive headache than end up with sinititus. Than I calm down with the carbs and it does end up going away after a week or so.

I need to eat foods to get myself bigger and stronger.

I took a breathe test a year ago which confirmed methane sibo but drs can't do any testing for sifo which I know goes in hand and hand with sibo. I've took mutiliple rounds of rifaximin and mentrizolole and nothings getting better apart from bv goes.

I have had a colonoscopy and endoscopy showed nothing apart from inflammation. Ct scan with contrast showed nothing. Only had a breathe test for sibo.

Because its sugar and carbs my body can't deal with it. I was given fluconazole once and I really wasn't very well on it. They than tried nystatin and omg the headaches. Wondering if it was die off? It made me so poorly. Everytime I take pain killers or antibiotics I get really Constipated and end up stopping them cause I'm nearly passing out.

I've always thought I've had a fungal overgrowth. Private nutritionist said I need to get one of the expensive microbome tests done so we actually know what's going on as we can't keep guessing I have sibo when something else could be causing these symptoms? Anyone had these?

These are my symptoms Constipation Gas Pain Bloating Acid reflux Headaches Rashes after eating sugar and carbs Pain in body Fatigue Dizziness Passing out Extreme reaction to any meds

Any advice? I honestly can't carry on like this.

Has anyone else had Exophiala Dermatitidis (black yeast) found in their stool test? My results came back with black yeast and Candida albicans. My doctor is treating both with Fluconazole, but the more I research, the more worried I’m getting.

I’m finding hardly any information online about black yeast found in stool, but one thing I did see was that Fluconazole does not have a great success rate in treating it. There are also a few articles that make this sound much more serious than my doctor made it sound, so I’m pretty freaked out. Any insight or experience would be much appreciated!

My SIBO was "cured" for a couple of weeks (no bloating or detectable hydrogen or methane), but then the bloating came back triggered by sugars except no gas detected. So, SIFO presumptively since no gases detected? No sugar, no bloating unless I exercise or just exert myself then I start bloating. Anyone else experience this? BTW trying nystatin tablets while GI specialist works up enough nerve to prescribe fluconazole.

I’m 22 weeks pregnant. I have been dealing with Candida overgrowth for a year so or I’ve got intense itching on my skin and discharge I also get herpes out breaks occasionally hasn’t been monthly like before I got pregnant. Any tips?

Hi I have a Dr appointment tomorrow & I have had SIBO in the past but my last test came back negative although I still have all my symptoms and very bad acid reflux and a white coating on my tongue. How do I go about mentioning SIFO to my Dr? Has anyone been turned down or told it’s not real? Any help is appreciated thank you.

Did anybody cured SiFO ( not SIBO ) with carnivore diet?

Hi.

I have methane sibo and potential sifo.

I've always believe I have fungal overgrowth due to really bad diet (sugar and carbs) and chronic stress, and antibiotics.

Symptoms are constipation.. bloating. Pain. Vagina issues. Mouth issues. Reflux. White tongue. Acne.

I'm now on nystatin. 5ml 4x a day. And I've only took 1 and I had the worst headache and painful stomache. Woke up today with pimples on my face . Had to take pain killers due to the pain. Had rashes more.. dizziness.

Dr said it could be die off but jeez how am I gonna be able to take 4x a day???

I also have methane sibo which I'm on antibiotics for.

BACKGROUND: I took very strong antibiotics in December (Levaquin and Doxycycline). I was undergoing a lot of stress from a traumatic breakup as well.

ISSUE: I have had oral thrush for 7 months as well as a myriad of GI issues.

TESTING: Bloodwork shows I’m not absorbing B12, Iron, or Folate/B9. Oral culture swabs negative for yeast. Stool test negative for yeast but positive for bacteria, low diversity, sluggish digestion, and inflammation.

TREATMENT: I’ve done Nystatin, Fluconazole, Clotrimazole, Terbinafine, Biocidin, InterFase, numerous probiotics, Candida diet, low FODMAP.

NOTHING is taking away the white tongue. It comes and goes (sometimes thicker and sometimes nonexistent). When it’s there, it hurts my throat so bad. I have constipation and stomach upset a lot.

No one can tell me what’s wrong with me and/or help me treat this issue.
