    inguinal hernia right side, motility SIBO issues?

    Thanks for the info, I will keep investigating and searching. Can you confirm for me that an inguinal hernia in some cases (even rare cases) could hinder gut motility? For example pre-hernia my entire life 1-2 type4 movements a day, after the hernia slow motility as such nearly always type1 every day. If I take 700-1500mg magnesium oxide per day I can end up with type4 movement every day. I have a strange theory that the kink from the hernia allows only small amounts of stool through at a time and slows everything down resulting in ‘rocks’ at the end, but when enough magox is used to soften the stool it can flow more freely through the kink and manage a type4. I suspect I will not be able to prove anything until I have the repair and see what happens. Keep in mind slow gut motility is an underlying cause of SIBO, the treatment Rifaxamin is followed with a prokinetic so the sibo does not return. Thanks again
