I have been having digestive problems for over nine months now. It started when I got a stomach flu last november, and after that I just kept getting nauseous. I found I couldn t run, excercise, or even eat more than a certain amount, as I would start to feel like throwing up. I ended up losing a fair amount of weight. I finally went to the doctor and, upon an X-ray, was shown my gut was full of stool and gas. I was given some magnesium citrate, and from that day on, felt the problem lay with too much in my system. I periodically tried to cleanse myself, though not too often, as I was told using laxatives more than once a week can make your body dependent on them. I have seen multiple doctors. One perscriped Linzess, but I felt that didn t make me feel much better than the symptoms. Another perscribed Omeprazole, but I feel that makes me constipated, which increases the problem. Alltogether, it is very frustrating to wait a month to get into see a gastrenterologst, talk to them briefly, get perscribed some random medication, and then try and make another appointment, and have to wait a month. My mother is a nurse, and a practitioner of the paleo diet. I am not so strict, and have indulged in grains, especially in trying to experiment in what made me feel better or worse. Different things seem to cause problems rather chaotically. I ate a gluten-free pizza from Pizza Ranch once, with no issue. When I tried to again, I felt it caused great gas in my stomach, as I was belching to the point almost to vomiting. I felt my symptoms improved some with the use of a probiotic once a day. Since I ve run out of probiotics, I have been experiencing a resurgence of old symptoms. I have also been very constipated this week, possibly due to an omprazole I took. I tried an enema, something I ve done on occasion. However, this is my third in two weeks, adn I felt it really upset me this time. I m sitting here with more bloating, gas, heartburn, and all around lousy feeling. I m tired of feeling this way
