I suppose so.   Have you searched the forum?  I think I recall this topic coming up several times.   I did read this article (though I bet you have researched this topic throughly).

GretchenP,

I do a lot of nutrition research and come upon things "I bookmark" so if the topic ever comes up again...

I will have an answer for it next time....there always is a next time...

I didn't have a literal bookmark in this case....but I knew what to look for and where to look for it....

So I found some articles/Links that can help you.

https://healthfully.com/fecal-body-odor-6766475.html

See the TMAU paragraph...

Try taking some powdered stomach acid BetaineHCL and Riboflavin (B-complex is better)....because it will have all your B's....but if you want to be sure it is the Riboflavin....take just it...

Here is an article about it...entitled "Riboflavin-Responsive Trimethylaminuria (aka TMAU) in a Patient with Homocystinuria on Betaine Therapy"

The Riboflavin will cause your urine to change a bright yellow....this  might take a few days for it to occur because your body is absorbing it all in the beginning...

I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advise.

2 Timothy 2: 7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included.

      Muscle Twitching

      By Yaya · Posted

      I take all vitamins and supplements.  My cardiologist has me taking B12 5,000 once per weeks.  He gives me complete blood work every 6 months.  He's still building my D levels which is now in 60s.  He wants them in low 80s.  I take 5,000 IU's daily.  With this dosage I've gone from 42 to 65 over a period of about 5 years.  It builds very slowly.   As far as iron, I take a double dose of gentle iron with C on an empty stomach on alternate nights.  Yes, iron is a component for many of us with RLS, but mostly "brain iron" that in some people may require iron transfusions.

      The positive DGP-IGA indicates the possibility of celiac disease. It is typical for someone who does have celiac disease to have some antibody tests be negative and others positive. This is not unique to celiac disease diagnosis. It is why doctors typically run many tests when seeking diagnosis of a suspected disease.  The DGP-IgA test is considered to have high sensitivity and specificity. In general, the DGP-IgA test has been reported to have a sensitivity ranging from 75% to 95% and a specificity ranging from 90% to 100%. Overall, the DGP tests, including DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG, exhibit a sensitivity of approximately 85-95% and a specificity of about 95-98%. The above paragraph is taken from this article which gives an overview of the various tests that can be run for celiac disease and their reliability: What symptoms are you experiencing?

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, get serum antibody testing done for celiac disease. You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). NCGS shares many of the same symptoms of celiac disease but does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. There is no test for it. A diagnosis for NCGS depends on first ruling out celiac disease. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. Some experts feel it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Eliminating gluten from your life is the antidote for both.

      Biopsy results can be negative despite positive serum antibody results for these reasons: 1. Early onset of celiac disease. Inflammation has been happening for long enough to cause damage to the small bowel lining that is observable in the biopsy sample. 2. The damage is in the part of the small bowel lining below the duodenum. The duodenum is the part of the small bowel immediately below the outlet of the stomach. 3. The damage is patchy and was missed by the one doing the biopsy. A thorough biopsy would include several samples taken from different areas of the duodenum. Not all scoping is done this thoroughly, unfortunately. 4. The positive serum antibody results are caused by some other medical problem, food or medication that mimics the inflammatory reaction typical of celiac disease.
