Hello @jackieo67, Welcome to Connect. I know it must be frustrating to have seen many specialists and not have a diagnosis or treatment plan that helps. You mentioned in your first post that you also were told you have a redundant colon after a second colonoscopy and also mentioned severe groin pain, veins throb and more symptoms. I'm sure you have shared all of your symptoms with the different specialists and each has passed you on to other specialists.
I'm not sure where you have been seen by specialists, but if it's an option, are you able to seek help at a major teaching hospital or health facility like Mayo Clinic that offers multidisciplinary teamwork in healthcare? --- Mayo Clinic: multidisciplinary teamwork, physician-led governance, and patient-centered culture drive world-class health care: https://collections.nlm.nih.gov/catalog/nlm:nlmuid-101537958-pdf
