Abdominal pain, extreme fatigue, alternating constipation/diarrhea, nausea, severe headache

Your symptoms sounds like what i had. I had pain in my ribs, found out it was from a hiatal hernia, i was also diagnosed with gastritis, inflammation of the stomach which caused me to have on and off constipation and diahhrea, i woke up every morning nausous and really really tired, i had no energy at all, always felt very faint no matter how much i increased my fiber, vitamins, fruit, vegies, iron, i still felt very faint. Having a colonoscopy and gastroscopy will help a lot. Hope you get better!! Keep smiling :)

thank you for your help had a gastropscopy last week didnt show anything will have a colonoscopy done next month thank again

Hi

Thank you for your encouragment going for ultrasound scan this day 2 weeks will let you know how it goes

many thanks

I had a lot of the same....tested for everything under the sun...thyroid, heart problems, endocrine problems, etc, etc, etc.....
I never would have guessed it,
but it was my gallbladder. I can't believe how really bad it was making me feel. I could tell immediately when they took it out that my fatigue was gone...its now a week later, and I'm still recovering, but I feel better than I've felt in the last year. Ask for the ultrasound, even if it shows nothing, get the hida scan w/cck as well...thats where my trouble showed up. The fatigue had gotten so bad that some days I didn't really want to live anymore. It was sooooo worth it. Good luck to you.

my blood tests for ciliac disease also came back negative....but i recently stopped eating gluten foods because it said if you think you have CD you should stop eating glutten foods ASAP..but if i stop eating gluten will it change anything inside me for the camera down my throat test??

Please google systemic fungal infection! I have had the same problem! Doc after doc, normal test after normal test. I just got diagnosed after 4 long and torturous years. I hope this will help some of you!!! You can be normal again! And the test you need for diagnosis is a blood culture for fungus and bacteria! A simple blood culture...some antifungal meds and a strict antifungal diet, and your free...

I would try to eat better food that include greens. You body is under attack. Magnesium citrate, and golden seal and echinacea. Get off glutens now. You intestine sound really messes up. The sluggishness is built up toxins. What ever your eating is basically poisoning you slowly. B complex will help with the energy. So do that and then make yourself go for walks. Eat greens and reds. And fruit. Lots of fruit. Not concentrate fruit juices. The fresh raw fruit for the trees.

I have had the same symptoms for years, the problem is, is that they are such generic symptoms that they can be caused by a number of different problems, keep going back to your doctor or try a naturopath until you get it sorted becauase living with the pain and symptoms is bloody annoying to say the least. I recently cut out all foods over a week detox and then slowly introduced everything again, I believe it was dairy that wasn't agreeing with me as I tend to get all the symptoms when I eat something dairy related. I have also been diagnosed with poly cystic ovary syndrome (cysts on your ovaries) which is very common apparently 1 in every 5 women have it, I believe it has also had something to do with these symptoms. To lesson the symptoms cut out dairy, sugar, most gluten, stick to one coffee a day, drink plenty of water (even more than you think) and eat lots and lots of vegetables (especially green leafy vege), and I know it's hard when you don't have the energy but try to exercise for 30 minutes a day (even a walk will benefit you). But keep persisting that your doctor do more to find out what it is, and don't stop until you get an answer and a solution. Best of luck to you all!

Good luck with it and it is a good sign that they didnt find anything through the gastroscopy, at least thats one thing out of the way and i am sure it is nothing serious, most of the time it isnt. All these symptoms we have end up being something really small and manageable.

i also have somewhat same problem my doc has suggested that i have liver problemor jaundice pre stage but i feel like these problems many times in a year . they denied me to take white flour .as it is hard to digest.if i take anything i have swellon stomach so please if u hv any suggestion please give

superstar27 I have had the same problems and my CD test also came back negative. This has been going on since I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes 8 years ago. Recently I was rediagnosed with Type 2 and we are trying to get me off insulin. Well, I also have kidney disease, throid problems and muscle cramping. I was on high blood pressure and diuretics for the whole time. Recently I ran out of my bills and decided to try and live without them. After two weeks I realized that my stomachs problems disappeared. I went to the bathroom normally and had no explosive diahrrea or chronic constipation. My blood pressure started to go up and I renewed my pills. Two days ago I went back on them and this morning explosive diahrrea. It is so embarrasing because I can't get to the bathroom in time. However, it does not continue for a few days, only a couple of hours. Does this sound familiar?

Hi, did you ever get any answers. It is freaky how similar my symptoms are to yours. Everything is exactly the same except I have the deep breast pain in my left breast but all the other symptoms are to the T. Please let me know if you found any answers. I to am miserable from this strange aggravating array of symptoms.

It's not that 97% of the general population has Celiac Disease. But that up to 97% of people that have Celiac Disease don't know it.

im 26 and have been having the same exact problems for six months now and i can not figure out what it is. i have no insurance so i cant see a doctor. the last three days ive literally been awake for a total of 12 hours the rest i wanna sleep. i was in bed last night at 11pm back up at 830am back in bed by noon slept till 4 and im ready for bed again. i dont leave my bedroom unless i have to use the bathroom. im really starting to worry
