Hi all, I was recently diagnosed with SIBO following a bout of either food poisoning or a parasitic infection. My symptoms were consistent with Giardiasis - terrible gas, diarrhea, and tons of mucus - but of course I tested negative (not sure if the lab even tested the stool sample because it seemed like they lost my results). After a round of rifaximin and amoxicillin a few months ago I feel worlds better, and even followed a protocol from the book 'The Gut Health Protocol.' My remaining symptoms though are still slight gas after meals, and consistently normal-looking floating stools with what I believe (after internet research) a clear film of mucus that floats on top of the water. Has anyone had this problem following parasites or SIBO? I believe stools float from the gas and not malabsorption? Other than these symptoms I feel fine. My GI assumes it's now a gallbladder problem but has done no further testing as of yet, but I'm wondering if I should have more stool samples done if it is a parasite. Any advice on what to do next would be greatly appreciated :)
Floating stool & film?
