Summary
A person with long COVID reported treating SIBO with Allimed and mast-cell stabilisers — ketotifen, tirzepatide, PEA and slowly increasing cromolyn — and said both helped a lot. Tirzepatide, started at 0.25 mg and raised slowly, did not worsen their existing gastroparesis beyond about two days, and they were at 3 mg. They said they would still test higher doses, having felt a difference between 2.5 mg and 5 mg with no side effects.
