Hello Michael Harrop,

I have been reading a lot of the information you have posted for the last 3 days and to tell you the truth, I was in a similar situation as you (nobody knew anything and I had to search for everything on the internet). I had an incurable autoimmune disease - Ankylosing spondylitis. I had this disease for about a year and fortunately it left no lasting effects. It was a year only because the doctors took it as incurable and that I needed to take pills and exercise for the rest of my life to delay the disease (but that's just how the capitalism/business system works - cured patient = lost customer (I don't want to say that doctors do it willy nilly, they are just trained that way)). With my information up to date it would have definitely been less than a year. I never saw FMT as the solution but diet change and I was right as was "Dr. Michael Klaper" (It's The Food! It's been the food all along.). And I knew the problem was in my gut, thanks to an elimination diet where certain foods were a problem and certain foods were not. After the cure, the foods that were causing me problems were no longer causing me problems.

If you are interested I will elaborate more on my experience with the good ending.


Enough about me, now it's your turn
I'd like to know what all the problems you're currently having. I've read about ibs-c, ibs-d. What other problems? Autoimmune diseases? Underweight? I'm sure we can both agree the problem is in the gut. Anything deficient or excessive in your blood tests?

And most importantly, what's your current diet? What are you eating? What are you drinking? And how many grams? Liters?
Solution?

Have you heard about M.D. Brooke Goldner?


Have you heard about Dr. John A. McDougall?
Have you heard about Dr. Michael Greger?

I don't think your job is to find the perfect stool donor to solve your problems. Your job is to eat specific foods that will help your gut to multiply bacteria and regain its health. I fully believe the first step will be smoothies from Brooke Goldner + a plant-based diet you can tolerate. We're talking a minimum of 3 months of a daily perfect diet. After you heal follow the Daily Dozen by Michael Greger. And if you want to keep your health 100% under control then follow the advice of Peter Rogers.

If you decide to change your diet I will be happy to be around to help you achieve this goal :)

PS: If you have the money to pay for Dr. Brooke Goldner's help, you have won and it is only a matter of time before your problems are cured - https://www.goodbyelupus.com/work-with-doctor-g/ ;)

This doesn't appear to make sense. Your cure was a temporary elimination diet? Then when you added back the foods without doing anything else, you could tolerate them fine?

I also eat based on an elimination diet. It's not a solution, it's a method to prevent the worst symptoms. It doesn't fix anything on its own. You have to add back the missing microbes that allow you to digest those problematic foods.

There's nothing new in the OP for me. Most of us resorting to FMT have already tried everything else. Seeing, and paying, people/doctors like that is a waste of money for me.
