EXPERT INPUT PLEASE!!!! Looking for answers to 20 yrs of multiple unexplained symptoms.
Hello Lucia,
I am sitting here shaking my head as I read about your journey. I am not an expert-I am a mom and I found with my children's "medical mysteries" that all of the symptoms made sense once I found out the underlying cause. For one child, it was GERD and asthma, for the other, it was GERD and POTS. I know you will figure this out and it will all make sense.
The clues that stand out are Milk allergy as a baby and sensitivity to sugar. Have you had food allergy testing? Endoscopy with biopsy to look at food allergy, lactose intolerance, fructose intolerance, celiac disease, h pylori and eosinophilic esophagitis? Foods sometimes cause constipation, vomiting and pain if there is an allergy or intolerance. On the other hand, there are many, many reasons for your symptoms so I really want you to work with a doctor on this.
Most of all, what helped me figure out the "medical mysteries" was finding one doctor who really listened and was an excellent problem solver. This doctor can be your primary doctor or one of the specialists. I wonder if one of the doctors you have seen seemed to be a good listener and problem solver. Maybe you could go back to that doctor and ask him/her to help you sort out the symptoms and make sense of what is going on.
Let me know your thoughts.
