Upset stomach, losing weight for months

I’m just wondering if some of your symptoms could be hormonal. When I was in perimenopause, I had all kinds of things happen to me that I had never experienced. I had 72 hour migraines once a month like clockwork, and I even told my doctor that I read an article that suggested I might need estrogen, but he didn’t work with that, so he never gave me any and now I’m finding out that would’ve helped. When I’d get in bed at night my feet would turn bright red and start burning. Something you said reminded me of that. And my breasts were really sore and my doctor even sent me to an oncologist thinking I had breast cancer, but I didn’t. That went away after I went through menopause. Just an idea, Also, the naturopath should’ve done some testing before prescribing anything. They usually do all kinds of saliva, blood, or urine testing. I’m getting ready to go to a gastroenterology clinic tomorrow to see if they can figure out what the heck is wrong with my digestion. Apparently it’s not an easy thing to figure out. I’m sorry you’re going through that and I hope you can find some answers. There’s nothing worse than having digestive issues and not being able to eat properly. Also, someone commented that you’re eating a lot of protein and I know that meat is the most difficult thing to digest, and our digestive tracts were not made for that. The intestines of a carnivore are much shorter than humans. You might try laying off the meat and see what happens. I wouldn’t think the eggs would hurt unless you were allergic. Good luck and I’m sorry.

Have you had a cta of your abdomen? Gi testing? Other than colonoscopy. Like barium swallow? Motility testing is esophagus? Some of your symptoms sound like Mals. I have this disease. Speak to your gi dr asap!!!! I hope you feel better real soon. Advocate for yourself. Do not take no for an answer.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It helps to feel like I’m not the only one with weird symptoms.

Please get yourself checked for EPI. It's a simple stool test. Unexplained weight loss is one of the main symptoms along with diarrhea. You can get it at any age. It means your pancreas enzymes aren't functioning to digest your food causing the weight loss and malabsorption. My G.I. doctor ordered mine but I'm sure your primary care doctor could, also.

Maybe pancreatic insufficiency. Have u seen gastro ? I have it,

That’s the next test we are doing.

When you had your colonoscopy, did they do a biopsy? I had all your symptoms and it turned out to be microscopic colitis (the only way they can determine that diagnosis is with a biopsy and look at the tissue under a microscope). Hope you figure this out soon-symptoms are miserable.
