Hi @amalynne69 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Can you share a little more about your medical journey and what you have been through?

I have been suffering with bowel and upper GI issues for over 20 years. I have visible on scans an elongated colon, liver cyst, diverticula, and two hernias. I am on multiple medications, and have tried every diet I have been asked to. I have severe bouts of chronic constipation that eventually land me in hospital. I have been told I have IBS-C which I believe to be incorrect as my understanding is that I have enough physical anomalies to explain my symptoms. Waiting on referrals.
