    Hey Susan

    Have you been to your GP? Sounds serious whatever it is...

      No they have tested me for everything but they do not know the cause. I do have acid reflux but i just can keep food digested well in my system it seems to want to come out every time i eat

      I have diverticulosis. So I've dealt with digestion issues nearly mg entire life. Now with menopause it seems to act up more often. I am taking probiotics now. So it has helped some.

    Unless the cyst is large, it shouldn't cause problems. Sounds like maybe ibs. Look that up and see if you think that might be it. It can come and go. Sometimes flares up but can go away for a while. Or possibly chrones. Another problem that is treatable.

    Ugh.. Having same problem of late myself, eating yogurt and drinking lots of water. Hoping for the best.

    I also get chills, which make me feel like I have flu symptoms as well!

    Sorry to hear of your problem. Try probiotics . The stress of the cystic could be coursing this. When I stress or worried I get the runs and can not keep anything down.
