I had a big round of antibiotics about 9 months ago when I tried to remove my finger starting with intravenous ones so that would have toasted I bet. before I had a ton of antibiotics for the upper respiratory infections and H pylori treated twice plus three looks down into my throat and stomach over the last 5 years. but anymore there would be nothing for it to live on.. a year without carbs would have killed it.
I hate this its been most of my life now and i ts ruined eating for me I don't enjoy it and any food I enjoy is usually problematic. its a huge strain on out budget and its like paying to go to the dentist. I cant skip meals or I run out of energy fast and my esophagus screams at me. what little I can eat out is always the same. mostly the same Chinese beef and broccoli or mixed veggies or such as that maybe 5 different dishes. or like lettuce wrapped burgers and of course no fries or anything. on longer rides I need to be pretty full before we leave and I can usually be fine but sometimes I start running out of steam and have to get a energy drink or a protein shake or a couple of those hot dogs at 7-11 and a caffeine pill. I don't like to eat while I am riding if I can help it. I have worked it out pretty well over the years but this is not something thats going to go away. its been going on all my life when I look back. all I can hope for is my body heals some as long as I stay away from most carbs. when this first happened I was able to eat non carby veggies as much as I wanted every day. but after a few years I thought hey I can eat carbs again and after several months things got so much worse and I had to eliminate so many foods. Now I can handle veggies three times a week and feel lucky to do it. for a solid year I could not even touch one.
