@kidprodigy - Hi! I have had a variety of digestive issues through the years and multiple endoscopes and colonoscopies in addition to large panel of lab tests- mostly at Mayo. It sounds as if you now really need endoscopy and colonoscopy with biopsies from different sites. Biopsy is also a good way to diagnose Celiac disease for example. Celiac disease could fit many of your malabsorption symptoms. It is also possible that you could have an inflammatory bowel disease, not detected by the capsule. I see that you got some good advice here and links to gain more information.

Hi!
Have you managed to sort the digestive issues?
Im having mine now for around 4-5 month. Lost 7-8 kg, bloating pretty much every single everyday, indigestion, burping, etc. Have had a multiple blood tests, ultrasound, CT, Gastroscopy with Biopsy - all clear, all normal. They found H.Pylory back in June, have had a treatment, re-tested and negative. Could that be microbiome is ruined. Well, they say it something functional and prescribed Amitriptyline.

Do you mind sharing examples of diagnoses you received after upper endoscopy and/or colonoscopy procedures? I'm still at a total loss when it comes to what my diagnosis might be and you could help give me some ideas. If my question is too personal, I understand and please disregard.
