Dear friend,
I feel your frustration. About a year ago I was in the same place as you. After barium enema, x-rays, cat scans, colonoscopy I realized that doctors couldn't help me because all of my results showed nothing.
I got better when I completely changed my diet. Do you eat dairy free, low fat, no spicy, no alcohol, no caffeine diet? Also, do you take Acacia fiber? If you don't, I strongly recommend. You can read about it here http://www.helpforibs.com/supplements/sol_fiber1.asp
It helps people with diarreah or constipation. It helped me too but I'm very sensitive and I get rash on my face from it. I get rash from lots of things... So, try Acacia fiber and I'm almost positive that you will feel better.
Another question: have you ever tried taking magnezium vitamins? I used to take 2 before bed and had successful BM's in the morning. Magnezium is a natural laxative and my friend took it for years.
Good luck.
