Very mild IBS symptoms compared to before....very mild. Frequency of going to the bathroom has increased and so has the feeling of hunger.

OK i guess it must be different than me because eliminating my IBS symptoms eliminated my constant hunger. One of the strangest things I would experience is if I would eat right before bed i would wake up STARVING but if I didn't eat before bed I wouldnt wake up hungry. Doctors were clueless about this lol

Do you have POTS.

I eat before bed and its weird I am not hungry but I know I need food.

Think I should test for anemia next time...

How would you test for malabsorption

Hmm very interesting.

When I eat high fat I can last for 3 hours. But low fat 1 1/2. But after a 3/4 I start to get hungry already.

How do you react to chromium? It used to work really well. But now I totally crash from it. No idea why.

I only take small amounts in my multivitamin. What effect has that had for you in the past?

You and I have similar hunger patterns.

I was thinking the only thing that has really changed is my salt and potassium intake as well as Florinef.

Well chromium should help with the hunger. On I insuline and leptine.
But now when I take it I crash really hard. So can't take it anymore. Pretty sad about it lol.

Does the Florinef help with the hunger part?? Cause when wearing support stockings I sometimes feel I'm a bit less hungry. But might imagine it

Interesting......Chromium for leptin and hunger. I would be too......

I may have to get some testing done to see where my deficiencies are.

I am not up too the full dose yet. I another .0075 to go then I'll be there.

Since starting I am more hungry and going to the bathroom more.

I tried digestive enzymes and and betain HCL. And determined the DE were really not good for my gut.....went to hospital over that little experiment.

I want to do some Rifaxamin to maybe rid me of the SIBO demons that cause the malabsorprion in the first place....

Hmm. Yeah try it if you can tolerate it. Gut is very tricky for me as well. Think I could improve a lot as well. But don't tolerate meds in general
