Keep your fingers crossed for me. 1:15 I get to see Dr GI Guy about the Pill Cam Results! Its been 4 weeks and I am dying to find out. They told me if they found anything life threatening that they would call me asap. So No News is Good News ,they never called!

Warned me if I had bleeding a fever or sharp persistant pain that I was to call them. None of that happened soooo.. Here we go to find out what is going on that is causing the pain and diarrhea!

I got everything crossed that you can cross for luck!

I'll let you guys know tomorrow how it goes!

Bugger... More tests! The blood work come back negative.. and the Pill cam didnt show any damage. Yet when Dr GI Guy pressed on my right side I nearly hit him! Then he did it again and I nearly came up off the table. *** is going on here! Every single thing keeps coming back inconclusive! Yet I have pain, diarrhea, night sweats, joint pain, some constipation followed by explosive diarrhea!
Now we are off for 3 days worth of poop tests!
I do not frustrate easily I have the patience of a Saint... Im starting to loose it and get angry. And an angry redhead isnt a pretty sight! They have to figure this out soon! Im down 40 lbs in constant pain and cant eat without issues. Any one got any suggestions here?? I am all ears!

I am so sorry to hear that things are not going well for you. I have experienced the same same fustration as you. It has been well over a year for me and I am hoping that my pill cam results will eventually give rise to help. I too have lost alot of weight, well over 35 pounds. I keep crossing my fingers and please do the same, hope has to keep us going. I know its odd hearing it from me. I am having such a hard time with this. But I need to hold on to something to get by and so do you. Keep the faith and the hope.

Did the doctor give you anything to help out in the mean time.

He wont treat for anything until he knows what he is dealing with. Just told me to get some stuff thats over the counter to deal with the symptoms. Just frustrating when I know me and I am never sick never have pain never miss work for anything. Hell I had 3 surgeries and missed a total of 13 days between the 3! So this is starting to get me angry!

Right side pain makes me think gallbladder. Or ovaries or kidneys.

Nope we have already done the CT scan and its not the galbladder overies or kidneys They all came back clear .. and wouldnt cause the diarrhea for 6 months now. Where he pressed and it hurt is where intestines live and just about nothing else. Its just a big stamp my feet grrrr angry thing now! Well I guess I just poop in a cup for 3 days and drop that off at the hospital and wait another 6 weeks to get back to see him to have him tell me there is nothing wrong! Grrrrrrrr!!

I'm sorry you aren't getting any results. I know how frustrating it can be. I have a diagnosis but still am having trouble no one can figure out. It gets old really fast. The only thing you have to keep in mind is that you KNOW something is wrong and as long as they are still looking, the doctors have not given up on you. Keep pushing until you get the help you need.
