My Illness is a Losing Battle

[Flygoedla]

First off get stable! If you have an undiagnosed GI issue, I'd definitely recommend going to a registered Dietician. Not a nutritionist, but a registered Dietician. Work with them AND your doctor and try to find a diet that can help. Many GI issues such as Chron's, Colitis, ect can be improved to an extent with diet.

My issue was nowhere near as severe as yours, but my body was not absorbing nutrition in my gut. I dealt with constant cramps, bloating, and terrible stools. It got to the breaking point when I started passing nothing but blood and mucus through my stools.

I was put on an elimination diet, both my dietician and doctor worked together. We found out I am very sensitive to wheat, rye, caffeine, and milk(I'm unable to handle the sugars that occur in dairy, so butter, heavy cream are completely okay for me to eat) but I am not Celiac.

So please, take care of yourself - get the help you need!

I have an autoimmune disorder that makes me feel almost the same. Rest for a little and then go to the ER or a doctor

Have you had a colonoscopy to check for Crohn's disease or Ulcerative Collitis? And gastroscopy?

I have had almost every test, guys.

I see a month has passed since your first post so i really hope you had that immediate situation taken care of. That whole thing sounds really scary. I hope you can find a cure some how.

If you ever feel like taking a shot at something new, go to a 'Nutrition Response Practitioner'. They don't have all the answers but depending on what exactly is going on inside of you they made be able to present you with a less harmful solution. Anyway, if you've got nothing to lose give it a try..I was in a mess last year and went to 8 different doctors and specialists and not a single one could figure out what was causing all of the problems. The nutrition response doctor basically saved me from a life of constant pain

Why hasn't it been diagnosed? Is it an unknown problem with your digestive system? Have they checked for things like celiac disease or maybe other intolerances to foods? Maybe you should go to ER if it's that bad.

How are you now? Have you gone to seek further treatment? sad

Please do not give up hope. If you are a God conscious person, seek His mercy now exclaim

Can you just give me your actual name so that I can pray for your recovery?

May you be blessed with God's love and mercy this Christmas. Merry Christmas. heart

Update!
We think we found the problem, but it increases my risk of getting pancreatitis slightly.

But no. Only one person was ever allowed to pray for me, and that got me nowhere, too. I usually say I don't care, but I feel like that would give a god a little satisfaction at my misery :/
(My religious preference is agnostic polytheist. I know it seems counter-intuitive, but I basically just keep an open mind to all gods while unsure if any even exist.)

Thank you. Merry Christmas.

I have an undiagnosed chronic illness where something is wrong in my digestive system. They removed my gallbladder. They tested for quite a few things both before and after that. After my surgery, I was momentarily better, then receded and now it's so bad. I am on so many medications with intense side-effects where I've been losing my vision and balance, nearly blacking out or fainting. My resting heart rate yesterday was 138bmp. Hint: the avg is 60-100bpm. Today it's about 120bpm. The idea of food makes me nauseous and I'm getting so weak, I can hardly walk more than about a block. I can't move too quickly (or even anything that isn't slow and steady) or everything goes black and I have to wait for my vision to return and try not to fall. I'm so sore, so weak, so tired. My doctor appointment is ten days away.

I don't think I can last that long.

Should I go to the emergency room? I'm unsure what they could do, other than flush the meds out of my system in case it's the side effects. I know they can give me an iv for getting nutrients into my system since I can't eat. But that's all. I think I literally will not recover from this.

--Nausea, Blacking out, and Fainting--- in regards to this:

1. When these things happen to you, do you feel a sense of fear? 2. Does something in your body tell you that you have to lie on the floor? 3. Do you get really hot/clammy/sweaty/nausea/cramps before fainting/blacking out? 4. Do you have violent tremors(uncontrollable shaking) before/during/after/ these "blackouts" or when trying to sleep? 5. After the blackouts, do you feel extreme weakness and tiredness. 6. Do you have "spells" where you vision gets weird (like dots everywhere/or black, etc.) & can't really do anything but stare. Or you stare for no apparent reason? 7. Does this fainting/blacking out happen in a particular patter example: like only at night/ or during the day/ etc. ? 8. Do you feel intense emotions when you awaken from fainting like: depression, hopelessness, anger, or fear?

Please quote me back w/ your replies & try to be specific. I MAY be able to help you figure out this issue. Don't lose hope! heart
