getting very discouraged - somewhat gross
Hi everyone,
I'm getting very upset because I had a colonoscopy and the doctor told me there was NOTHING wrong with me. And didn't have any answers except maybe you're stressed when I asked if everything is fine than why have I had diarrhea for 18 months! I have had extremely loose bms for all this time, sometimes ranging from painful diarrhea to just weird brown liquid or silt (sorry to be gross). A couple of times I've seen things in the bowl and thought maybe a
parasite but then I realized it was just completely undigested things I ate. A piece of potato skin, a segment of grapefruit. My body's digestion is so weak/awful that it can't break down a tiny segment of grapefruit? Sometimes I just want to cry.
I've read a lot of posts but haven't seen much about this type of problem. The only thing that has helped some has been taking fiber(psyllium) but I know that is just bulking and not fixing what is wrong and don't want to do that for the rest of my life. I want to be well! If the doctor says that the colon, etc. is fine, than doesn't that mean that other organs are not OK? like liver, gallbladder, stomach acid problems, etc.?
Any ideas would be appreciated.
