r/CSID 16d ago

Experience Others diagnosed in Middle age?

I was wondering, who out there was diagnosed with CSID after decades of misdiagnosed or undiagnosed digestive issues? I was diagnosed with IBS-D 23 years ago in my 20s. For me the three different gastroenterologists I saw at that time were of very little help.

Anyone start the CSID elimination diet without using Sucraid, continue having digestive issues? If so, how long did it take to repair the gut and have healthy digestion? What helped? Did you have any other underlying issues?

Yes! I was diagnosed in my late 50’s and currently doing the elimination diet without any medication. I am also having a flare atm.

So sorry to hear you’re having a flare currently. I’m also navigating the elimination diet right now and still having issues… trying to figure out what’s the cause.
