Tests for #severe digestive issues ?

I’ve had digestive issues for two years now, with symptoms of diarrhea, constipation, stomach cramps, stabbing stomach pains, and nausea whenever I eat/drink. I’ve been on different medications to control the symptoms but as soon as my body adjusts to the medication, they come back very quickly, leaving me unable to work. I’ve had multiple abdominal ultrasounds (both with and without contrast), as well as a colonoscopy/endoscopy, which only showed inflammation. I’ve been tested for diabetes, celiac, and #chrons but all were negative. I was diagnosed with food allergies but even with avoiding those for over a year, as well as avoiding inflammatory painkillers such as naproxen, ibuprofen, and aspirin, my digestive issues have only gotten worse and I’m desperate. Do any of you have any idea of tests that I can ask for? #Fibromyalgia #ChronicFatigue #IrritableBowelSyndromeIBS #Digestiveproblems

Does anyone here with fibromyalgia experience digestive distress ( nausea, bloating and reflux)? #Fibromyaliga #bloating #Digestiveproblems

I've been suffering with fibromyalgia since almost 5 years now. Over the past one and a half year, I've been experiencing extreme nausea and bloating. Is this common with fibromyalgia or am I facing a different issue? Also, how do you deal with severe bloating?

I’m currently dealing with an ulcerative colitis flare up and even though I have my own ways to copeing, I was wondering how others deal with it.

How do you handle a Ulcerative Colitis Flare up?

How long do yours usually last?

What foods do you eat/stay away from?

Any other tips/tricks/etc you would like to share?
