No I don't think you need a endoscopy since you been eating alright. I'm sorry to hear about the osteoporosis and I hope your doctor is helping to keep it from getting worse.

Plus don't get so depressed about the C and pain. You are GF and I'm wondering if you are getting enough insoluble fiber. I am IBS-C, but once changing my diet over to Heather's suggestion I can eat and have a BM every two to three days. That is great for me, since I it use to be once every two weeks.

My guess your pain is coming from being too C and of course you don't want to eat. You need to figure out how to get your BM's moving, so you can increase your food intake, which will allow you to have regular BM's. Increase your water intake if you don't drink enough water. Excercise also helps get those BM's moving.

Do a search on IBS-C. There are alot of posts on this topic. You also should not accept pain for the rest of your life. You need to accept you had an ED, forgive yourself for abusing your body and move on. Stress plays a role in your IBS.

Yes I still eat when in pain and C, because heavy bread feels good on my stomach. I was dx 3 years ago and lived in daily pain and lost alot of weight from not eating. I told myself many years ago I would never go back to my ED days and the weight lost scared me.

Since you are GF try eating rice cakes with natural peanut butter on it. There are good tasting GF crackers you can eat too to help settle your stomach. Corn muffins are tasty too. It is fine to eat veggies, which are impt. insolube fiber to eat. Check the recipe board - there are plenty of soups full of veggies and filling. I love eating oatbran hot cereal in the mornings and that should be safe for you eat. Oats are soluble fiber and the bran is the insoluble fiber.
