TOOCUTE I've had bb since 19-20 years of age and I'm currently 28. I don't have bo either however, I seem to have gas and burp an awful lot. But, I do eat lots of yogurt. Have you every been on any diets or taken any diet pills or other suppliments?? For some strange reason I believe phentermine is the cause of my bb. If not phentermine, it's due to me constantly dieting. I've been dieting since high school.[/quote]

OMG Toocute...I was on phentermine too, and wondered if that had something to do with it. It dried me out... I think I got addicted to them damn pills. What is your email address????

Question Hello, i am wondering if maple syrup disease may have other symptoms other than the smell of the urine the reason i ask is because my little sister has smelt like maple syrup since she was born 26 years ago and its not because she eats pancakes and my five year old has smelt like maplesyrup since she was 5 months old i mostly smell it from moth secretions from both of themj weirdly enough they look exactly alike and act the same i know no corralation in that aspect but i cant get over the smell being the same they also both have gi problems my sister has siliac disease and my daughter had small bowel resec operations by any chance could there be something i should have them both tested for ? or it is just a really weird coincidence do you think? thank you for your time

Answer We have previously answered a question similar to yours. Please see: http://www.askthegen.org/question.php?question_id=1080. We recommend that you address your concerns with your daughter?s pediatrician.

So it was halitosis, then TMAU, and now MSUD, guys it seems we have a whole family here. Lord have mercy on human race!

MSUD is deadly in early childhood! Infants die of that so noone has that from this boards.

I'm really curious to know what everyone's age is, and when did they develop BB? Perhaps there is a link there. Mine started only 3 years ago (32 now), and I do suspect it is a gut/gas/intestinal problem. What about those who got it during puberty? Or those who have always had it? What are your major symptoms?

I'm also 32, started @ 17 (though I've been quite good at ignoring it for a lot of that time)

and I suspect it's the classic case of oral bacteria. I've done all available gastro/ENT-checkups...
