Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?

I’ve been searching for a diagnosis for almost three years. It seems like drs just go with IBS when nothing else is obvious. I feel right now like I am a yo-yo. Every dr I see tells me something different. Slow transit, tortuous colon, dyssyrgenia. Add fiber. Don’t add fiber. Low FODMAP. No low FODMAP. I’m ready to pull my hair out! And I just feel sicker and sicker.

I feel the same way. I have been in emergency so many times...I have been to a specialist and they dont want to operate unless my colon falls out wich sounds pretty stupid and scary to me. I can't have a bowel movement myself I have to flush myself with a water enema every few days and for the last year and a half my stool has been yellow. So I know there are digestive issues. Iv been in the er many times with severe pain and they say yes you are very constipated. I am just not getting anywhere. I dont know what to do anymore.
