Hi: My GI specialist says he is "frustrated" and has not come up with a diagnosis. I have had exploratory bowel surgery with nothing turning up plus several CT scans. One prescription I am on is to speed up digestion but I had another obstructed bowel since starting to take them. The other prescription is supposed to help muscles work. I have been on that one for several months. It does give me the runs plus a sick stomach at times. The only surgery I had before this all started with appendix which does not appear to be the cause. I had a colonoscopy in late March and then 2 weeks later had my first obstruction, followed by the 2nd obstruction about 6 weeks later and then the 3rd obstruction about 14 weeks later. I feel that the GI people are ready to give up. In order to get a 2nd opinion I would have to have them refer me and would have to travel to a larger city. At one point they told me to eat whatever I wanted. I have cut out popcorn, walnuts and raw vegetables but other than that am eating pretty well everything.
