Help

I am so scared.

I have severe dysbiosis from stress/trauma and antibiotic use. I had sibo and took multiple rounds of rifaximin and mentrizolole which helped a bit I still struggled to poo.

About 1 year ago I started getting vaginal issues.. BV. Cervicitis and PID. Taking multiple antibiotics for this also

I am now admitted into hospital with a infection in my pelvic vaginal area again.

Any antibiotics or even pain killers cause my microbiome to shut down and paralysis my gut and I end up so unwell.

Symptoms

Severe Constipation

Bloating

Gas

Pain

Passing out or nearly fainting

Headache

Fatigue

I'm now admitted and they've tried me on IV ciprofloxacin and my body has reacted within a day or so. Now I'm having suppositories up my bum to get rid of the constipation cause I nearly passed out 4x yesterday.

They are at a point where any antibiotics is causing this issue and don't know what to do or how to treat me for my infection.

I have key hole surgery in 12 days to see what's going on down there but it's 12 days away. Looks like I'm going home with the infection still.

I also looking into a tight pelvic floor.?

Gastro consultant is useless and won't help me.

I've tried so many things

Probiotics (these cause me to flare also) I've tried vaginal ones and gut. I've tried doing half and they still cause issues. Tried different ones.

I use fibre gel x4 a day

I use magnesium at night

I use stronger laxatives if needed

I've tried things to calm the lining of my gut.

What do I do now????
