    I’m sorry to hear of your distress- it might be worth you changing your doctor and perhaps consider asking what other tests might be used to investigate your issue. There is help out there if you persist-don’t give up

    Good luck

    Try Miralax it brings water to stool, you can adjust it as need and works well, sounds like IBS-C that you have.
