August 4, 20242 yr comment_95108 Hello. I’m new to this site. I was diagnosed with severe, atypical, post-viral IBS-C some 8 years ago, and was fully investigated. I have had very little relief with the usual Allopathic remedies, including Amitriptyline and SSRI’s, and dietary manipulation, including low FODMAP. I tried several reputable probiotics, including Symprove and VSL3, but found that Alflorex relieved the constipation. I started taking Ferrocalm about 16 weeks ago and experienced adjustment symptoms from day 1 which still persist. These include worsening pain , looseness, flatulence, as well as Jarisch-Herxheimar type symptoms of headache, skin rashes and joint pains. i have no features to suggest IBD or a bowel neoplasm, and feel that my persistent symptoms are the result of a severely dysbiotic gut microbiome. Does anybody have experience of taking Ferrocalm , or has anyone experienced prolonged adjustment symptoms with any other probiotic? I do believe that Ferrocalm is doing its job, and remain hopeful that I’ll see an eventual improvement. Michael Edited August 4, 20242 yr by Michael195267 Report
