Months ago I suddenly started to have lose bowels and this massive urge to defecate (poop attacks), to the point where I sometimes barely made it on time to the toilet.
While foodintolerances, especially for plantfoods and carbs, kept increasing or worsening over the years.
Cutting all plants(&fiber) has made 'the attacks' more manageable. I still constantly feel the gurgling and a sensation as if I have poop sitting at the end (rectum?) wanting to get out, but without the fiber it didn't push itself out anymore like it did.
(Carnivores take note, carnivore doesn't heal all for everyone: it's not as simple as: you just need to eat more fat, electrolytes blah blah blah).
For the record, I've always been more prone to constipation and got diagnosed IBS-C years ago.
So this blasting mushy poop was an entire new level of sh*ttyness for me. (pun intended).
Going by symptoms and awful smell at times, I feel I'm suffering from (methane and hydrogen sulfide) sibo/libo/colondysbiosis for who knows how long..... possibly with some parasites and mold thrown in the mix.
I'm thinking libo/slow (colon) transit happened first,resulting in an 'upgrade: to the small intestine. I'm just out of finances to do all these specialised tests (if they're even available here), procedures.
I'm not sure if that all is the rootcause of my currently ever decreasing health and minimisation of daily life/activity.
Anyway, during Christmas I decided to eat some rutabaga fries with my ribeye and got constipated for 1.5days,while I was taking lots of probiotics and supplements hoping to get my bowels moving again.
Total fiber from it was between 2 - 3 grams.
Once I had a BM again, they were perfectly sausage shaped, something I hadn't seen in months!
It's now 3 days later and been eating carnivorish again during those days. Didn't have much of a BM today and poop is still coming out sausage-shaped.
Can 2 - 3grams of total fiber still cause bowels to be firm (thus slow and harder to get out) after 3 days?
I like not having the constant gurgling and feeling of walking around with 'a loaded rectum'(I now basically have a 'stuffed dead gut' feeling) and anxiety of leaving the house without a toilet.
But the constant worrying about whether I'll have a (good) BM, the toxin- and hormonal(recycling?) overload isn't fun either.
It feels like I can't win....damned if I do, damned if I don't...
