Yeah. I have an annoying, but not debilitating autoimmune disease. I’ve read case studies of people who got a FMT for other reasons (fixing gut infection in hospital) who have the same disease but much worse having massive reductions in symptoms for years. I think maybe there are some RCTs happening now for it but I think they still have some years to run. But yeah, reading the stories like what you linked is why I am very wary - I really want to be able to get a prepared mix of isolated, cultured, known good bacteria that can be inserted in to just seed some more of the good stuff. I think that removes a lot more of the ‘ick’ factor (even if the bacteria strains were originally isolated from faecal samples) even though what I have is bad enough that I would totally do a normal FMT if I thought it was safe enough!
