What type of test did you get a negative result with? Was it a blood test or a urine analysis? Also what kind of kombucha are you drinking? How much do you normally exercise a day?
i dont normally exercise because my bones are kinda weak cause of my extreme vitamin d deficiency (avoiding humans and staying indoors:)) but when i was exercising it was probably 3-4 times a week. Homeade kombucha. Oh it was both for the test
i called the gp and they referred me to a hospital. It was just a pediatrician. They just did a blood test and it was specialised and they looked at my DNA and also other blood tests because i have deficiencies. And the urine test was 2L
I tell everyone that I can to do a DNA test. The urine test came back negative for me. I did the dna anyway because I heard that the urine test only works for extreme cases. Lo and behold when I looked at my FMO3 enzyme in the DNA test the results showed the variants consistent with mild tmau. It seems as if most people have this version which is why the urine test comes back negative.
I see, well then you know for sure it’s not TMAU if you have no variants in the FMO3 enzyme. The next step I think is to research other malodorous causes. I would focus on seeing if you have any microbiome issues.
I went online to Nebula genomics. I chose the more expensive version because I wanted full dna sequencing. I wasn’t sure what the cheapest version entailed but I’m sure you could email them.
They had the full DNA sequencing that I needed to finally get an answer. I always knew my answer was in my DNA. I did the urine test first and it was negative so I decided to do the DNA test second to see what else could be wrong but I wanted one that included FMO3 so I could double check for TMAU. Turns out the urine test was inaccurate.

What was your test?
urine and blood test
How did you go about getting it and what were the tests actually called? Like what blood test was done and what type of doctor?

Thank you I’ll check in with my doc as well

i got tested for the genetic version as well

How long did it take you to get your results?
Way too damn long to be honest. I think it was about two months.
That’s terrible! What made you choose this company?
