As a result of all the feedback, I have decided to continue documenting my search for answers. My CSIS cousin wasn’t

LTC/Hospice pharmacist, this is a common error. SL tablets vs regular tablets

This year I had a major breakthrough in my treatment: I realized I have both Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Small Intestine Bowel Overgrowth (SIBO). The interplay between these two diseases made diagnosing them extremely difficult. (It took me 12 years and five doctors: two GPs, a gastroen

Am I the only person who pronounces this drug as if I'm speaking Parseltongue? Gotta have some fun in the pharmacy somewhere. :)

NOTE! This list has gotten too big according to reddit so new ideas/actual recipes will be added in comments. I felt the need to make this post, because I would have found this post invaluable when I first started on this diet. After a month or two on this diet, I was still feeling my way through, b

I’m having a pain flare up, so what better time than now to type out my longest Reddit post. Happy to answer any questions/ explore any ideas. There is a TLDR! To be transparent, I have yet to be actually diagnosed with endometriosis. My providers and I have been very sure I have it for years now.

This is a novel length post mortem of our experience. I’ve tried to break it all down into categories (hospice timeline, aide / nurses, social worker / chaplain, pain meds, etc.) to make it easier to skip around. I hope sharing our experience brings someone in a similar situation a tiny sliver of s

I've been sick for over 6 years. There's **a lot** to talk about and I won't go into detail here, I'm only sharing the most important parts to help out those of you who are suffering since I've been experiencing a lot of seemingly definitive recovery. I'll make a post and probably a video in the fut

Hi everyone, My mom was diagnosed with Parkinsons about eight years ago. Her situation has mostly been under control with medication and a lot of exercise. She tries her best to make do. The one major problem that is becoming almost a crisis is ever-worsening constipation. It's come to the poi

\*\*The Core Issue\*\* "Leaky gut," scientifically known as intestinal permeability, occurs when the intestinal lining becomes compromised. This creates gaps that allow toxins, bacteria, and other "unwanted guests" to bypass the digestive system's defense mechanisms and enter the bloodstream directl

Hi! I just started taking lubiprostone last week at 24mg twice a day. I had very severe diarrhea that would not stop (I’m talking miralax colon cleanse type diarrhea) and I got some shortness of breath for a little bit after taking, but it was manageable. I pulled back to only take the 24mg at night

Not asking for medical advice, just more general advice…. I was wondering if anyone else has experience with using Lubiprostone (Amitiza) instead of Lactulose. My Hepatologist recently upped my Lactulose dosage to help combat my ammonia levels which have been inconsistent and pretty high at times.

Hi. I have struggled with constipation my entire life. I have been to the gastro many times and used many different medications. Currently I’m taking lubiprostone once a day prescribed by my doctor as a trial. I haven’t noticed any significant improvement. I’m still always constipated. The best it

Anyone have any insight as to why Lubiprostone insert says to swallow capsule whole and not to break or chew? I was only able to locate one study in Japan where they dissolved the capsule in 55C water and had a 93% recovery of med through HPLC testing. Got a patient who has an NG tube and the cont
