@tiss it was back in 2012. I was trying to manage symptoms for a really long time by myself because I thought it was just food intolerances. I didn't start working with a GI doc or dietitian until last year.

That is pretty shocking that your surgeon or primary didn't refer you to a GI after your surgery. It's a very hard surgery with some not so pleasant issues after. I'm sorry you suffered for so long. I am 62 and learned long ago to advocate for myself in health matters but didn't have the knowledge or bravery when I was young. So I commend you for taking control of things and finding a good doctor who will work with you. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
