I had breast cancer recently and had to get a mastectomy on my right breast and that was easier than dealing with this. Sorry to hear about your breast cancer, it must've been so hard having to go through that as well as living with bb! But can I just ask if you had to go through chemo and radiatio...

I can go for periods of a week or so where things are great, then I get one bad reaction and its like my world is over for a few days. Almost like I'm manic/depressive. I'm in the process of trying to find time for a therapist, but work is so busy this time of year. I've always suffered from some s...

I had to chase my GI for 3 weeks so that he can write me t...

I just checked my CBC which I did 3 months ago, and I also have low Neutrophlis count - mild neutropenia. Lots of factors contribute to having low white cells count, such as unhealthy diets and lifestyles, stress, medications and even aging, so a change of diet and less stress will most probably hel...

sadmum, any update on this? Are you thinking of trying the liquid oxygen regime? StillHoping...No I haven't began any diets as yet, I've been so busy with work and life. I did try Bismuth though which I didn't find very effective, it actually gave me stomach pains, and I feel that it messed up my w...

I remember gargling with it once, it tasted terrible but it did help reduce my bb for days. I didn't try it again as I wasn't sure whether it was safe to use internally although I never swallowed it. The one I used was meant to be used in baths, that's what I originally purchased it for. I hated the...

UPDATE On a side note, even if this isn't my cure, amoxicillin helps, at least this time. And in the past I've had practically zero success with antibiotics. What could this mean? Surely it narrows down the number of places it could be coming from? Did you only have Amoxicillin or were you given an...

It was $100 AUD per 100 capsules and not covered by private health insurance, so I foun...

I've been on bismuth subsalicylate capsules for the past 3 days and so far I haven't detected any significant changes! I dunno, it's been hard as I've also been sick with a terrible cold so maybe that's affecting my senses. But all I can say is that this shit is expensive so I hope it works. Another...

but isn't that pepto-bismol? to stop diarrhea? It is used to treat various gastrointestinal issues that are caused by certain parasites or bacteria such as e-coli and h-pylori. I've just read that there are two ways of using Bismuth subsalicylate, oral and renal...Anyway I won't know much about it ...

Are you going to start this regime? I think this would be my last resort as I'm terrible with such diets, I've tried the candida diet before and it did improve my breath but I gave it up after a few weeks, it's just too difficult to follow. I don't have the inner strength to continue with it. Funni...

So I went to see a GI specialist last week who works in a clinic that specialises in all kinds of digestive diseases and also specialise in treating halitosis caused by the GI system (here’s a link if you’re interested: http://www.cdd.com.au/pages/disease_info/halitosis.html) I began by giving him a...
