·I have been having problems with my bowels for seven months now. I have had chronic diarhhea, mucus and blood in my stool, severe abdominal cramps, gurgling stomach, excessive weight loss, headaches, constipation at times.I have had a colonoscopy and endoscopy in which they found "nothing highly unusual". I have had an ultrasound of the liver, kidneys and gallbladder of which they found nothing wrong. I have had blood tests and stool cultures And.. next week I am having a barium swallow.The doctors have mentioned everything from IBS to Ulcerative Colitis to Celiac Disease but they have yet to diagnose me. I am currently on the drug Asacol for Colitis as they this that there is a very "slight" chance this could be it. I am having the barium swallow to decide if I am a Celiac.I feel rotten. I am too skinny. I have no energy and I am frustrated that the doctors can't find anything. This is not in my mind. I am sick. I live in a very small community and am "dying" to see a specialist because I just don't trust that the doctors here know what they are doing!I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience? I sure could use some support.Lesley
