Family member has SIBO & Endomittriosis. Are there reliable solutions?

[Bob Seeker]

Just wondering if there are any things people found that worked for them, which I can suggest.

I know from Leo’s case that this can seem insoluble, and doctors can hardly help.

[Leo Gura]

There are dozens of things to try.

Start with doing lots of research:

Suggest she question discordant (indigestible) beliefs about fear, specifically how she identifies in that regard. Fundamental beliefs, like the point of life / living. Look for conflicts / discrepancies between the beliefs and the actuality / her life, how’s she’s living it so to speak. Anything she ‘beats up on herself’ for might be worth inspecting.

This is probably the best thing out there in my opinion https://www.amazon.com/Medical-Medium-Cleanse-Heal-Depression-ebook/dp/B087BQ7GB4/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1FI0LNYVLHHVF&keywords=medical+medium+cleanse&qid=1643637369&sprefix=medical+medium+cleanse%2Caps%2C124&sr=8-3 however if this person is not currently eating well, and or would not be open minded to it it might be better to cut out dairy, red meat, sugar, processed oils, etc, first.

@Leo Gura Thanks

@Nahm this person was raised in a sheltered manner, very religious. There is much about the world she cannot “digest” at this point. It is not easy to offer direct help in that regard though.

@mandyjw Thanks. she has tried diet manipulations but there is likely more specific diets she can try.

I do not mean digesting anything about the world. I mean digesting belief(s), which btw have been held for a long time. 

What is the first thing that comes to mind, when I ask, what is it she categorically denies / refuses to even look at or consider? (Asking you)

Maybe along the lines that the vision she has been fed of her future is not adequate, or suppressed doubts about her faith, or that her family, with which she identifies strongly, has not served her by sheltering her, but has held her back.

@Michael569 Thank you for the advice.
 

@Alex_R sure

@Bob Seeker

Are those your speculations / guesses, or are those somewhat accurate & indicative of her views, which she expresses but doesn’t ‘look at’?

@Bob Seeker Acupuncture plus some herbal treatment worked for me (for endo-related problems), I would've otherwise had to get surgery.. which after some research I learned has a high chance of recurrence. Took almost a year plus ongoing maintenance though to reach a pain-free level. Stress reduction also went along with it was also an important factor..

These are my speculations. I am not particularly close with her. I intend to relay information I am collecting here to people who are closer with her.

[Bob Seeker]

@puporing thanks!

[Nahm]

@Bob Seeker

I think your speculations are in the right ballpark as far as her possible views. It’s hard to say much more without hearing from her. Imo it’d be best for her to try pretty much anything & everything. To be as involved, engaged & invested as she can. The bigger the variety of healing modalities in additional to medical treatment the better. It’d help more & more, simultaneously ruling out more & more. Expediting that is best imo.

@Nahm ?Thanks
