[QUOTE="sarahdennis87, post: 1988261, member: 499730"] Hi [USER=316931]@Alex_B[/USER] I too have many issues with my stomach. I was told I had IBS 12 years ago. May be too much info, but I haven’t had a normal bowel movement in about 6 years. Over the years my stomach issues got worse and worse. Drs told me to try different diets, gluten free, lactose free, FODMAP etc etc. I did and nothing helped. Last April I went back and asked them to refer me to gastro. It took a long time but in December I was FINALLY diagnosed with Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency, basically my pancreas doesn’t produce the enzymes needed to digest my food and therefore it comes out just as quick as it went it. It’s worth mentioning. It can be diagnosed by a simple stool sample to test for Elastase. It could be that it’s not that, but still worth asking. On a day to day basis, what exactly are you eating? I know you said nothing had changed but specifically what foods? [/QUOTE]
