Glad you got a colonoscopy. I assume blood tests show no inflammatory factors. Have you tried some dietary changes? Look up FODMAP.

Have you looked up FODMAP? Have you eliminated gluten?

Gluten is the protein in wheat, barley and rye. You can experiment with a gluten-free diet, but you'll need about a month to see if it really makes a difference. You must not eat any product that contains any amount of the three grains I listed. In India, you should be able to do this by sticking to rice and not eating any pancakes or wraps made from wheat flour. I'm pretty sure even potato dishes like samosas have wheat flour in them, same with chapuris. I'm not any kind of expert on Indian food, though.

Some people have a genetic condition called Celiac disease where they cannot digest gluten, and over years it causes damage to the intestinal tract. It takes a while to heal that damage. There are also people who are intolerant to gluten but do not have Celiac disease. It's not clear if this intolerance also causes the same damage. In both cases, the symptoms include diarrhea, fatigue, anemia, etc.

Perhaps you should go back to the DR and ask for a scope of your upper GI tract. That is a fool-proof way to test for celiac disease. You should do this test before you eliminate gluten from your diet.

If you want to consider a gluten-free trial, you really need to be careful about your food. Most people who do this must prepare their own food. It is very difficult to control the ingredients if you are buying your food in a restaurant or even eating at your mother's table.

A colonoscopy looks at the colon, which is the lowest part of your bowel. To test for celiac disease you need an endoscopy, which looks at the highest part of the bowel.
