I found this forum today and so happy I did!
Short version of my story is: I've been dealing with daily diarrhea (4 -8 times a day) for literally 6 years. Some nausea, not a lot. Constant pain, that varies on degrees. I've given up dairy, gluten, alcohol and sugar. Not a lot of improvement. I don't digest veggies at all. And as my body tries, the pain is horrible. I've begged thru tears to see a GI, but instead he has me see another GP in office. Yesterday he tells me he think I might have crohns. I've asked several times in the past and got a no answer. Next week I have my 3rd colonoscopy. I take probiotics, lomotil, flexeril and vicodin for constant pain. So very mentally and physically exhausted from this. I'm hoping to find some info and understanding from this forum. Thanks for reading!
