Sudden onset, stomach distress, and inability to eat.

Would you believe that the supplements this doctor recommended for me contain things that I told him I’m allergic to, like dairy? Every time I get my hopes up, they’re dashed. I’m so disappointed. Why don’t doctors listen to you anymore? 😩

Oh, my! Maybe he can update his recommendation once you remind him. 😜 I’ll
It will be interesting to learn what your GI doc thinks about further testing, especially now that you have more information from a functional perspective.
Are you able to find food you can eat? You have had such and difficult time and I know it it’s important to you that you keep your weight up as much as you can. I completely understand having the feeling you want to find out something is wrong. too. It’s something you can point to, own, deal with. But, in the meantime you just may not understand it.
So, do I have this correct? Your PCP told you to take antacids. Did you try them, and when was that? Now, this new alternative doctor thinks you need something to help digest foods since you do not have a gall bladder, and also a colonoscopy/endscopy. What exactly will that help you know? You aren’t able to follow your alternative doc’s recommendation because of a dairy allergy. Do you think having a conversation with your GI pulling this all together would help?
