No diagnosis but have had difficult 5 years of GI issues

I feel for you !! I have 6-7 diagnoses.. just saw my 6 th Gastro doctor in 10 years. Even had major testing at Mayo Clinic 2 yrs ago .
I’ve tried and done everything RX , Holistic, Diet wise , Ecery supplement for digestive health , hypno therapy, Acupuncture, Massage Therapy. I deep wet belch over 1000 x a day and half the night. Non stop churning gut . Hate to eat food 🥘, and eat small and healthy. It’s a living nightmare. 10 years of my life gone .
This new Gastro wants to put me on Remeron low dose ( I’ve tried some other antidepressants w/ no luck or bad side effects). This is specific for sleep and helps w/ digestive issues she said .
I’m hesitant to try again as I have such day fatigue as it is and deal w/ symptoms all day , everyday.
I’m going yo try it though .
I’ve had over 20 tests done ☑️ too .
Same diagnosis 7 of them . She said it’s more like functional dysplasia. That the gastritis, GERD , hiatal hernia , diverticulosis , shazki ring , small gastrointestinal polyps etc .. are not causing this . Hummmm I don’t believe that ?
We are at the mercy of these Dr’s
I am seeing a néw Functional medical Dr too and hope he can help me too .
God Bless you as this journey is so hard . I’ll pray 🙏 hard you find someone to help you !

Hi, I had my gallbladder removed in 2019 with all the same symptoms and no relief. Sounds exactly like me, It is nonstop sickness and drs do not fully understand. I did a lot of research and found that there are some tests that need to be done that most insurance companies approve but the facility that does the test hence the mayo clinic and a few others are not provided under my insurance. I believe we are both suffering from the same thing. BILE REFLUX GASTERITIS W/post cholecystectomy SYNDROME. BAM and BAD With BRG. Here is a link you can read interesting article ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9484982/. and you can always look it up on the Mayo clinic. identifying-diarrhea-caused-by-bile-acid-malabsorption/mac-20430098. Hope this helps. Still no cure as much research as i have done and still no GI specialist can help at all. My life is pretty much over as well. Hermit and isolation at its finest. Good luck.
