A year ago, several readers shared their ubiome for me and I did a series of post looking for patterns. See this post on the Genus Numbers.

It is time that I do deep dives for these early sharers.

Results K:

• Lyme diagnosis, chronic fatigue, inability to exercise, and pain. My biggest complaints are neurological. My brain fog is so intense most days
  • K 3/29/2016

Bottom Line Suggestions

The items from each of the deep dives aligned very nicely for this microbiome, for example, Inulin was listed many times.

The lists below are done by merging the lists from the deep dives linked above. Some items may encourage one genus and discourage another genus — those are removed (unless it seems that it strongly predominates on one). The impact on Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and E.Coli are intentionally ignored [See this post for the logic]. This is all based on applying logic to the results of studies — thus theoretical. This is an addition (not a replacement) to this overview post.

Results J:

• This is a relapse of episodes that have occurred for ~15 years.No diagnosis Key symptoms: Severe 24/7 specific point pain in umbilical area Malaise and feeling unwell Some nausea Other key biomarkers Enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes on CT scan Elevated WCC (specifically neutrophils) Very high SIgA levels My own view is a chronic infection – see biomarkers above No probiotics when the change happened

Results H:

• Spring 2010 began three years pf almost continuous illnesses on top of my flu like feeling.  Endless colds and flu, or at least the body acting like I had these.  9 months the first year, 10 months the 2nd, 10 1/2 the 3rd year.  Beneath these the constant flu like feeling throughout my body. Discomfort from wheat or gluten.

Results G:

• Multi-year flu-like fatigue. Poor sleep onset. Sleep is non-restorative. Near constant brain fog, fatigue, and need for isolation. Proceeded by actual flu (trigger?). Intolerance to exercise despite good athletic conditioning. Unexplained skin rash covering upper arms. Lymph nodes near top of neck swell if antibiotics are discontinued. This is a relapse of episodes that have occurred for ~15 years. A combination of antibiotics and LDN seem to be currently controlling my symptoms. Life is tolerable with the addition of LDN. But I don’t feel like I’m actually healing… more just not getting worse or suffering as much. The antibiotics also cause stomach pain / intestinal upset (which I don’t have otherwise). Fairly normal blood work. No obvious thyroid issues.

Results E:

• My symptoms are ibs and exercise intolerance, joint pain, headaches (cfs). I’ve been taking a lot of the “goodbelly” brand of probiotic drinks. And the jarrow brand “ideal bowel support 299v” probiotic pills. These are two brands of the same probiotic. They significantly reduce my ibs symptoms. I came down with ibs 16 years ago, and the cfs started about 5 years after that.
