This forum is the closest to my symptoms but I can't find any info on what exactly happened to me. Been dealing with this for a year now with zero improvement. In May 2022 I got COVID with strong vomiting and diarrhea. Couldn't eat, and lost 10 lbs (180 to 170) in less than a week. Right in the middle of this I woke up and my abdomen was distended. My size 34 pants were 3-4 inches from closing. I've mostly recovered from other COVID symptoms but the GI issue remains. Had lots of tests (MRI, x-rays, 2 Colonoscopies, endoscopy, done at Kaiser with no findings. Was prescribed a antibiotic for the gut bacteria. I'm on my 2nd GI and neither are able to help me. Now I've been referred to a dietitian and I'm a week into the FODMAP program now ( 4-10-2023). I've now developed a new symptom of lightheaded and hard to concentrate. I get more concerned every day now. I'm really at a loss and don't know what to do.
