God Bless you , hang in there !!!   please read the post in the "people are allergic to me patm" forum here  : check out londonblob, itchylife and my posts


u must change your diet - no more dairy, no meat, no sugar (use stevia instead) no gluten    stick to mostly a plant based diet (fruits and veggies) - u can make smoothies, juice , salads , hummus - lots of water , go to a sauna so u can get the toxins out of your body  (no fried foods)

u must deodorize your body on the inside by having a lot of greens in your body


and  initally   get chlorella supplements to help u get the greens in your body , u also need L-glutamine powder (mix it in your smoothies, juice), L-arginine capsules, NAC (powerful antioxidant) and u need probiotics which are good bacteria to replace the bad bacteria that is in your body - I take Natrene's Healthy Trinity, chia seeds to help u have more bowel movements - at least  one - two bowel movements each day


God is with you , never ever give up !!!!!  keep us posted on your journey to good health

Does that stop people from sniffing, coughing and nose running around yooy
It helps.
Thank you this helped me a lot! ! I was wondering why the smell got worse turns out it was because of my diet! it was acceptable before until i couldnt keep my hands away from the sweet treats and didnt even bother to drink plain water. very helpful :]

Is the smell coming with your breath? This smell is usually the tonsil stone smell. Check your tonsils (commonly tonsil stones are hard to see). Otorhinolaryngologist must cleanse it for at least 5 times (cleanse until the smell is gone).

There is a post on the forum that is titled "I found a fix for patm that works 100%" and it details how this one guy was able to get rid of patm using the steps he outlined there and i think it will help with the smell but instead of trying apple cider vinegar you can also try lime and i think it works just as well.

I have your solution. Please look up leaky gas/ fecal body odor, There are many suffering with this and everyone a part of tge group is different and has different symptoms, but i am sure you belong to this group...Your system needs internal cleaning. Through a hydrotherapist, You can also do it yourself with purchasing an enema bag online, but please be careful and do your research on doing enemas the correct& safe way. Use organic Apple cider vinegar in the enema bag. Use very little like 1 tbsp and fill it with warm water. Drink 1 tsp of organic Apple cider vinegar before meals. You may also benifit from devrom tablets. It's an internal deodorant, you can get it from your doctor, or you can purchase it online. I hope this helps.. let me know any updates

I used to have the same problem but I think I fixed it. Basically I got sick in addition to this problem and had to take 500 mg of antibiotic for 21 days. I noticed a week after I completed the dose, the smell was gone and it hasn't come back since. I think the problem may be constipation and bad gut bacteria. If you can fix your constipation and get rid of the bad bacteria and replace it with good bacteria, then I think your condition will improve! Don't give up!

You have sulphur breath. You can't usually smell it yourself and manytimes others can't smell it. But when you are speaking it sometimes will waft out and smell just like a fart.  Bet that  is it. Talk to a dentist about this possibility.

I have same thing with the fart smell.  What's messed up is it happens sometimes when I laugh and in a joyful mood and then someone comments.  It's made not want to be joyful or laugh when around people.  Also sometimes happens after I ate a large meal.   It makes it hard because usually family gatherings involve eating a large dinner.

You can either be the relative who eats a specific diet or be the smelly relative who eats what everyone else eats.

Hang in there dude. I've had PATM for more than 20 years now. When it started, and in the years that followed, life was hell because, like you, apart from making people and myself sneeze and cough, flies were following me. Between the two extreme diseases, I'd rather have PATM in my life than have flies follow me. I know what you are going through. Its extremely embarrasing. I solved the 'flies' problem in 2011 when I first stumbled upon this forum. I used 2 table spoons apple cider vineagar mixed with quarter teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda in the morning an hour before eating anything and in the evening. I took this for a month while every after a bath I'd rinse with a solution of epsom salt. I also took probiotics, zinc, charcoal, and vitamin b6 and 12. I took this for only a month and the flies stopped following me. I feel a lot better sitting in a meeting with colleages and seeing a fly playing a distance away from me and not even coming close! Its a relief although I still have PATM

I have a similar problem though it's occasional rather than constant. I would call it leaky gut syndrome though the medical profession doesn't recognize it. I take a teaspoon of liquid chlorophyll diluted in a glass of water every morning in an attempt to deodourise my fecal matter.

http://astronutrition.com/liquid-chlorophyll-triple-strength-internal-deodorizer.html

I also avoid foods that would make my fecal matter smell worse like sugar and dairy. I find it occurs when I'm anxious or nearing the point where I have to go to the toilet to empty my bowels.

Do you have IBS? I wonder if the spasms from IBS damages the intestines and makes them a little porous. A gastroenterologist I went to dismissed my suggestion that it might be a leaky gut because if fecal bacteria got into the blood it would probably kill you or at least make you noticeably very sick. But maybe it's not getting into the blood but going directly to the outside through the intestine walls. I'm not sure if that's possible or not.

I done every possible testing, doctors cant find nothing. Yet some people still sniffle orvrunb those nose..said its itchy when im around them.
Even when I was young my mother would call me a "stinky boy" and I thought she was teasing me but maybe we were born this way?

Welcome to the gastroenterology community!  I would recommend talking with your friends and family.  Ask them what it smells like.  Ask them how often they smell it.  Ask them if they see that flies are attracted to you.
