Hi Kim,

 

This is hard to answer. Without knowing any details of what you've been through or what kind of doctor's you have seen I'll venture a few thoughts:

 

- Have you seen a gastroenterologist?

- If yes, did they do a colonoscopy with biopsies of the colon tissue?

- If you've done these 2 things and still have no answers, then you might consider the following:

- find a Naturopathic doctor and see them - they look outside the box of traditional medicine - or -

- on your own, keep a daily journal - in this journal write down all of your symptoms, foods you eat, beverages you drink, BM's you have, etc. for a minimum of 14 days, and better yet a whole month. See if you can find any patterns between what you eat or drink and how you feel. You could be experiencing a food intolerance or allergy.

Given the information you have provided this is the best advice I can provide. Best of luck to you,

Elizabeth
