Unexplained diarrhea,malabsorption,dizziness,feeling faint, confusion

Posted by ajstaley @ajstaley, Jan 24, 2019

Hello,
I’m new here. My symptoms have gotten worst in the last year. I’m sick to my stomach or vomiting or have dry heaves everyday. I have developed food and medicine intolerance. Can only eat maybe small portions of rice and vegetables and plain bread throughout the day. And even then some days I am in the bathroom with diarrhea after eating. My gallbladder was removed some years back. When some of the same symptoms appeared back then. But there is no gallbladder to remove now. I’m losing more and more weight. I have periods of confusion and that’s really scary. The testing MRI’s , CT scans and blood work are coming back negative. My gi doc is repeating the testing with a CT scan of the Brian this time. I doubt she will find it. I’m getting sicker everyday. Really losing hope. I’m glad this website is here. It’s soothing to know I’m not alone. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

We really need help and unfortunetly it seems like doctor's don't know what to do for us. It's depressing especially when you have to wait weeks to see someone to maybe get help but maybe not get help

Yes, this so true we need help like yesterday. But we have to keep trying until a door opens. We have no other choice.

Thank you. I will stop the bread and see if it helps. I am lactose intolerant as well. But from time to time I was able to eat a little frozen yogurt for the probiotics. But not now since this illness has kicked in. My body seems to be rejecting just about everything.

I haven't either but people keep recommending those so I was going to ask for advice first because I am afraid to just keep adding things into my body at this point. Seeing as nothing seems to stay in

I understand. It’s getting harder everyday for me. Something has got to give. Praying body doesn’t give out before help comes. I feel so sick most of the time.

Do you still have the diahrea? Mine seems to come and go pretty severely I was on the toilet most of yesterday. Have you gone to the ER? They will probably give you fluids and if it's bad enough they may run some tests. Have you vomited?

For over a month now I haven't been able to eat (no more than a few bites) before I end up having severe stomach pains that have me on the ground screaming and crying. I had my gallbladder out yet I am still having the same terrible symptoms except now it is followed by severe diahrea that doesn't seem to go away. I have lost 22 pounds in a month and just seem to be getting weaker day by day. No doctor's have been able to figure out what's going on and things are just getting worse. I have been to the ER 4 times and they haven't been able to help me they just send me back home. I need help but I don't know what else I can do, all tests have come back negative or normal.

You can get FD guard at Amozon or Wallgreens . It is totally safe. Do what it says. Functional Dyspepsia has no know cure other than trying a anxiety med and small bites. After taking FDguard,Celexa, I am back to normal portions at meal time, with out acid food. I have been studying this condition and although I believe it has to do with the brain getting to much semitones or not enough,psychological factors play a part in this. Because I have had every test imagineable and no reason to have stomach condition. You need to be strong minded and take charge of that brain and tell it you are not sick. Please look up that pill FDguard it is just oils.it takes 3-4 days to work. I do not even take acid reducers any longer. You need some acid in your stomach. Contact me if you want!

I have never heard of that either. I will look into it. Did it give you diahrea? That's what I am dealing with right now. I end up in severe pain after I eat and then end up with diahrea that seems to last all day it has been bad. I will look into the pill you mentioned as well. I am just afraid to put things into my body because I don't know what will happen
