Message: <blockquote data-quote="oak" data-source="post: 863108" data-attributes="member: 185899">HiIn my case, SIBO is a long term side effect of abdominal surgery for cancer and was diagnosed by The Royal Marsden after extensive tests early 2014.I understand that diabetics are at a higher risk of developing SIBO.It presents similar to IBS, Malabsorbtion is a primary problem, especially fats and I also have Vitamin D deficiancy.Struggling to get SIBO under control as the prescribed antibiotic is not a frontline drug and repeats are not available from my GP.With so much going on in my digestive system my diabetes has gradually deteriorated and HbA1c has crept upto 11.My nutritional knowledge is sound, I used to teach Food Studies. I currently weigh the major carb groups for my meals and will only have one at a meal time, treating most root vegetables as a major carb as well as aubergines.Anyone with any thoughts or similar experiences</blockquote>
