Update, I posted back a few mos ago with symptoms of siob and was put on Xifaxan. The first round didn't make a difference. Just completed round 2 last week. Feeling a bit better. I am trying Eteragam now, on 1 packet a day and it's about a week now. I can't say yet if it's helping. I will keep all posted who is or was interested in these two meds.
I was able to get assistance to pay for both drugs. 1st round of Xifaxan they covered totally, 2nd round I paid $125. Care foundation helped with Eteragam and I paid $79 a mo. A far cry from $500 and Xifaxan was $3000. Thank God for this, especially if it doesn't help. Money down the drain. I am hopeful with Eteragam a Medical health food; because I can't take Viberzi due to gallstones. Keep trying to we hit the right med.
