Hey guys, i used to post here months ago. I am turning 18 now and became sick september of 2010.
Quick rundown - sudden bloating, bowel movement change, regurgitation, nausea, diarrhea. --> treated with herbs (GSE, berberine, Black-Walnut and cloves etc.. for dysbiosis and parasites) no luck --> see tropical disease doc in NYC, 3 rounds of anti- parasite meds w/ Antibiotics --> C. difficile, lots of ulceration and blood --> vancomycin --> totally messed up GI tract (difficulty passing stool, small frequent BM of diarrhea yet still feeling constipated), testosterone drops to 117 Ng/Dl = depression, thyroid appears to be slow (low t3 and t4), CDSA shows no growth of bifidobacterium and e.coli, overgrowth of citrobacter freundii and enterobacter cloacae --> both bacterias treated with Uva ursi and olive leaf extract for a few months, diarrhea subsides and stomach pain begins. Here i am now with a stomach that is always bloated, i bloat much more if i have a bowel movement (which i have every morning), i have horrible pain when i eat anything, especially if i drink water with it. GI tests show i now randomly acquired idiopathic gastroparesis (19 hour gastric emptying rate from Stomach to SI).
I am at this moment doing tests at Temple University, they want to use donperidone and anti-depressants to speed up GI tract. Waiting for test results from lactulose (hydrogen) breath test, probably following that with Rifaximin.
I am now starting a 7 day juice fast, i cannot take the stomach pain, i sweat in pain and have no appetite, eating is a chore so i want 7 days where my mind and body can feel what it is like to not be in constant pain.
If you have read all of this, i am truly grateful, any help would be appreciated, i do believe it is up to natural medicine and faith in healing to give me my life back and allow me to socialize and play sports as i once did and would love to do.
