Hi,
Everything I eat gives me gas, instantly, Is this IBS?
I am still working on a diagnosis for my problem.
2 weeks ago I had a gastrointestinal scope done. It was the one that went through my mouth. The doctor told me he found no problems but took biopsies. The biopsies will not be ready until Jan 21. The gastro doctor believes the gluten allergy
caused a digestive problem that has not corrected itself but I will not find out until Jan 21.
On Heather's diet the D is managed but the gas is almost unbearable. I drink the fennel tea but it doesn't stop the gas attacks. They are really bad in the morning. They start around 4am and and go until 4pm. I never get a good night's sleep. Because I am so underweight I have to eat every hour and a half or I get very shakey, weak and start sweating. It is quite scarey. Every time I eat the gas starts. I am eating a diet at this point of that is almost entirely rice,potatoes, sweet potatoes and chicken broth. Everything else is too painful to digest.
Tomorrow I go to the naturapath. I want to be prepared. If this is IBS I don't want to do any heavy cleanses and lose any more weight. When I took those probiotics for 6 days I had really awful gas and I still have not recovered from that episode.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
