Sounds pretty meaningless to me. But it's something that can be seen. Tested. Biopsied, whatever. Less searching. Everything cut and dried. I figured I'd go along with a while. But I never had upper GI problems. Another guy ("get a second opinion", they tell me), prescribed me Linzess even though I am not constipated. The 3rd guy tells me I have SIBO. Sounds cool. "Ok", I said, "I give up, what does it mean?", and he told me: 'Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth.' Anyway, I guess some people do actually need things and are a point in their life where taking beats not taking. But in general I have not only read, but heard first hand reports on the negative side from people who used that drug for a decent length of time.
Sometimes the body gets out of tune. Like a car. Usually just needs a good cleaning and the timing set. Next time go to a mechanic. Prefarabely an ASCE guy. Do not take chances.
