Awwww Cherl,
My heart goes out to ya and first and foremost i genuinely wish you well.
Now, whatever you have got going on needs sorting and if you arent getting the correct and appropriate medical attention that you have a right to then, only you can make sure that you do get it. Make enough noise and that should work.
I won't try to diagnose you because i am not a doctor and every single one of us is completely different so . . . .blah blah blah, you know what i mean.
Most importantly keep the chin up my dear, there is light at the end of the tunnel, and there is always support and a big ear here whenever you may need it.
Kind regards
Bruscar

Hi Cherl
So sorry to hear you are feeling so bad, but I'm glad you found the forum. I know it is very frustrating waiting for hospital appointments etc and it seems some doctors don't like to prescribe stronger drugs til they get a firm diagnosis. I hoe you get a date for the Barium FT soon.
Is it just eating in general that makes you worse or certain foods? Have you seen the Low Residue diet? It might give you a little relief for the moment.
