Unexplained diarrhea,malabsorption,dizziness,feeling faint, confusion
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.

Hi:
Go to a Doctor that specializes in MALS/Celiac Compression Syndrome not all Doctors are equal in this Syndrome. Please type in Celiac Compression Syndrome or MALS and read
Sounds like some good advice. Will check into it. Thank you.
Oh no, I pray that your not driving while you and your family are in the car on those bad days. We have to find a doctor or doctors who will listen. I am trying to network to find some doctors who will think outside the box. This could be something rare and their over looking it. Will keep you posted. Please be sure to stay safe on those really bad days. Maybe you can reach out to someone for help. I’m starting to ask for more help now. People need to realize one day it could be them.
I am in the ER right now due to chest pains and inability to breath with blurry vision and dizziness. So far nothing. They gave me Tylenol and a bag of fluids again. Now I am waiting to see what they say
Now I am at home neasea is awful I feel like I am about to throw up for the last 2 hours I have a bucket by my bed this is not fun
Oh no my friend. They can give you meds for the nausea. The doctors can call something in for you. I understand because Sunday I was so dizzy and nauseous I thought I was going to pass out and it’s scary. Ginger ale /water stays at my side. The doctor did call in something for nausea. I wiil give it a try. How are your chest pains and breathing now? I hope your feeling a little better .I support you all the way.
They are ok but I haven't been able to eat so I am pretty weak and just feeling terrible.
Hello my friend,
How are you feeling today? I am still a bit shakey . But we will see what today holds. Hope you’re feeling better. Keep me posted.
I have been getting sicker I can't hold things down and I am still so very neasious. I was hoping things would get better but here I am unable to eat, vomiting, and weak. My legs barely work any more
I have been worried about you. Sounds like you need to be in the hospital. I mean a hospital that has a team of doctors to look for maybe something rare. They need to think outside the box.You and I both. If you can try to get a diary maybe there are some triggers. I’m muddling along. Some day stomach upset is overwhelming and other times I’m dizzy and feeling faint. I try to force myself to eat. Mybe some broth or something light. Try to keep your strength you. And keep me posted.
