ok...I have suffered from IBS my whole life. Its been horrible. I have Gerd now. It all came to a peak when I found out I had a thyroid nodule that had to be biopsied ( its just a cyst), my husband and I bought a truck. ( I was worried about the money) and my little one had to under go minor surgery to have his front teeth removed from abcess when he hit his mouth. I was a basket case. I started experiencing indegestion, excess gas, and eventually heartburn. I have had Hida scan, various ct scans which alway show alot of bowel gas or constipation. I have even had a colonoscopy and 2 endonoscopys. I now have mucosal lining missing in y esophagus. I can barely eat anything without filling up with gas or being in burning pain in my chest area and upper stomach where have irritation My intestines even burn. I m in pain every day and i never feel like I have to go even when I do go. It seems like I have lost the muscal contraction in my intestines and get backed up. I stopped drinking coffee in the morning because of the gerd and that is the only thing I have found that helps me go. Yet when i do go I never feel completely relieved my intestines even burn. Can anyone with this similar situation understand or can even offer some advice. I cannot take anything take causes excess gas. My body will not expell it. I knoe physlium is a no no for me. The gerd, the gi doc says it is being caused by my ibs. The gasses are pushing on my stomach and causing reflux, and my stomach get filled with gas and the gasses push open my les muscle and acid and gas esophagus. I ahve muscosal lining missing that wont heal. PPI's and acid reducers maseem to make me worse. I am a very nervous person I have been told by doctors when I was a kid I will never have to worry about weight. I am nervous and have a high metbolism. Any one who reads this can you please tell me what you think. I even suffer from very bad internal hemroids. Any advice please. I do knot know what to do when I take medicine it upsets my stomach and seems to burn for hours after I take it???? Y and HELP ADVICE...SIMILAR EXPERIENCES. Please I would greatly appreciate it. I do not want to resort to laxatives, my system seems to move very slowly
