·Hi all,Like many others in here I have suffered from FBO for many, many years (guaranteed) untill recently. How did it go away? Well, I used to have Ulcerative Colitis untill 1 and a half month ago when I went in for surgery because it wasnt possible to live with it and this seems to have taken my FBO with it somehow... Now, having surgery for Colitis isnt a small one. I wont go in to details but the entire colon is taken out and your either given a temporary or permanent illeostomi. In my case temporary (look up J pouch surgery) so its not an easy fix (and i cant even guarantee that its what has taken away the fbo). After the surgery I still wasnt sure of course and I was too embarassed to ask anyone in the hospital if the smell was still there. At home still worried over my FBO I discovered this (free) e - book about a guy with FBO just like many of us have had/still have.... http://somethingsmells.wordpress.com/ I read it and decided that I didnt have anything to lose so I went to the dentist like him but he couldnt smell anything on me and told me to go to a regular doctor so i did (im just back from seeing him actually) and he too couldnt smell anything. Infact he thought i was nuts and I really mean nuts. He wanted to send me a shrink and all that. It was actually worse sitting in his office listening to him not really beliving a word I was saying than hearing the comments outside.I know this isnt the greatest of all (possible) FBO cure threads because it doesnt really offer a valid solution to the problem but if you read the e - book and his problems along with me removing my colon then then atleast the problems are probably either a dental one or as many of you say leeky gas or similar.I always hoped I could come on here and write a thread with the ultimate solution but unfortunatly this is all I can offer. I will stop by here once in a while and answer any questions if you have any. I may atleast have narrowed the problems down in a way no doctor seems to be able to...
