71 Beckwith Street North, Smiths Falls ON K7A 2B6
“Approximately a year ago, I started experiencing the most unusual and frightening symptoms, the most alarming of which was sudden and severe weight loss. Constant nausea, inability to keep fluids down, prolongued periods of dry heaving, and little to no appetite.. Within about 3 months I had lost a total of 25 lb. During this period, I walked into modern thymes. When I described my symptoms to Heather she immediately realized that my symptoms strongly suggested that i may be suffering from SIBO. She explained the illness to me, and I began to educate myself on the subject. I eventually brought this to the attention of my doctor who claimed to have never heard of it, and showed no interest in investigating the matter. It took some time, but i was eventually able to convince him to prescribe a very specific type of antibiotic designed to eliminate the bacteria causing the illness. By that time, I weighted 98lbs!! The battle is ongoing, but ive now regained some of my weight. I also use herbal antibiotics whenever i get a flare up, which helps immensly in keeping things under control. In a very real sense, walking into Modern Thymes, and speaking to Heather that day saved my life. I hope my story helps others who may be experiencing similar symptoms, and to know that that there is someone in this community who is knowlegeable, and willng to listen, and to help.”
