Running out of options

Posted , 8 users are following.

For years i have suffered from bad constipation, severe bloating and gas pains after eating. i have tried every diet i can find. i have been in and out of Penn medicine constantly. I have had 2 colonoscopies, 2 endoscopies, a gastric emptying, a barium swallow, various blood work, multiple CT scans of the abdomen, liver and thyroid. i have also had a barium swallow and the radioactive pill swallow and tracking. I have been treated for SIBO as well. Every single one came back normal. i have no answers. Besides all that, i have tried numerous supplements and herbal remedies from around the internet without any success. I am just hoping to find one person who has tried all of these things and found some type of answer to their bowel issues.

    Always drink warm water after taking any diet....warm water helps to digest food fast.
