Pepto (bismuth) struggles

If you are clearing toxins, parasites etc then it is going to get worse before it gets better

and if you are taking other things like prebiotics and/or probiotics with the pepto - it would be hard to pinpoint if one thing is causing the issues or the combo is causing the issues

are you keeping a journal?

Healing takes time, The D and weightloss wont improve until inflammation is minimised and the gut starts to heal.
and if you are still eating items or having contact with items that are medium /high level triggers - then the ability for any protocol to help is compromised

P. S. (for Zizzle) When I took oregano oil for a few days while battling a recent UTI, I had an INSANE detox reaction- trembling, elevated heart rate, insomnia, worse D, nausea, brain fog, you name it. That is some powerful stuff. I do believe it will kill anything, so I'm sure it's probably doing something for you. ;) Good luck!

Hey there! That makes sense. I had been on the probiotics for a while with no issues, so that's why I figured it was the PB. Could definitely be the combo, though. Yes, I keep a journal but it's mostly for foods- I often forget to include what all I've taken, med or supplement wise. I probably need to make it more detailed. :) Hopefully my Enterolab results will help me figure out if I'm still eating things that are triggers!

to gain benefit from the journal i suggest you include supplements, activities, weather, sleep patterns...
all of these things seem to affect symptoms

if you are reacting to histamine or mast cell then then things like - getting hair dyed, or using cleaning chemicals the day you clean the shower might be enough to cause inflammation...
