Hi Luna,

 

Sorry to hear about all your troubles. It sounds like it's time for you to find an Integrative medicine doctor or a nutritionist or a homeopath who can help you look into other options like food allergies or sensitivities.

 

You also might want to start keeping a food diary - write down everything you eat and drink, even gum or hard candy. Then record how you feel after you eat it - physically and emotionally. Also keep track of bowel movements. Do this for at least 2 weeks and it's possible that you'll see patterns between what you're eating and your symptoms.

 

You could be gluten-intolerant, or have a sensitivity to dairy products or eggs or soy.

 

This is the best advice I can give you without being a doctor or nutritionist.

 

Good luck,

Elizabeth
