@rozy288 ,
Could I ask please: What was your diagnosis after your Mayo appointment? And what was your follow-up/treatment plan? Do you go back to Mayo? I’ve been following your mystery and curious as to how you are doing.

No , no reason to go back to Mayo . The New Gastro Dr I got , did 2 televisits . Other people abs Dr. Did the 3 diff tests .
Had another 2 hr SIBO test , A Special CScan of Small intestines ( bowel), and another endoscopy w/ endo flip done by specialist that do that test . I’ve been diagnosed w/ Chronic Gastritis, Esophagitis, Class B GERD, Small Hiatal hernia, Diverticulosis, small flat polyps on my stomach lining. I belch over 2000 x a day or night . I eat so clean and healthy for years on end . I’ve tried over 50 Remedies, elimination diets, complete allergy testing including foods, Hypnoherapy, acupuncture, every pre and probiotic and every enzyme and everything on Amazon they make for gut health. I even got a medical marijuana card and tried some of the gummy‘s but hated the way it made me feel .
So I live on Ultra Pepto 8 yrs . 5 Gastro Drs and over 15 big and small tests . The Dr. At Mayo had same diagnoses in Oct , but had no reason why I’m sick after every meal and I blow up w/ so much gastric distress all the time . Then my intestines are so loud grinding that they wake me up in the middle of the night and then the belching and churning just are relentless. I even take Ambien 5 mg and melatonin to get to sleep and it wakes me up three hours later. Then fatigued during day from lack of sleep. Do my best to get up take a shower put my make up on do my hair do what I need to do around the house and run errands with my husband when I can but man it’s hard.
I also have an anti-anxiety medicine I take when needed. I hope this helps you understand, every day is a struggle. ;(
