No Diagnosis --where's My Gun?? Posted: 09-18-04 21:59pm
Sorry to sound so dramatic in the subject
but I really am at the end of my rope! I
have had severe and paralyzing abdominal
pain for about a year now. I have been to
multiple gp's, gi specialists, hospitals,
clinics, etc. X-rays, cat scans, mri's,
hyda scans, blood work galore,
ultrasounds, scoping. I also had my
gallbladder removed; it was a bit of an
exploratory surgery and they also ended up
taking out my appendix.
It's not a pancreatic, liver or kidney
disorder. My intestines are physically
functioning fine, no obstruction of signs
of crohn's or peritonitis. Thought about
a malabsorption (lactose, etc) but I
haven't ingested anything but white rice
basically, tried lactaid, beano, etc with
absolutely no help! Not ulcers,
acid-reflux, ibs, anything w/
reproduction. Can't find any pattern as
for activities, time of day, food, eating
in general, not eating etc as to what is
associated with the pain. Not
stress-related --believe it or not, i'm
really not *that* stressed out, or at
least I wasn't when this all started.
I've been on protonix, zelnorm, fiber
supplements, prevacid, and a million and
one supposed pain relievers. Nothing will
work for pain except for iv morphine or
dilaudid
my doctor says he doesn't know what to do.
The gi specialists don't know what to do.
I think i've looked at every page on the
web ...Please help me. I absolutely
cannot live with this pain. I can't go to
school, hold down a job, or function like
a normal human being when this hits me 3-4
days and lasts up to an hour

Endofrope- where is your pain located at

me think I wrote it. I have had the
surgery and still have the pain. Docs
got me on pain killers anti-depress. Im
at my wits end also. Let me know where
your pain is at. Mine is in the "v" on
my stomach.

It's not reallly localized until it gets
reall bad. It starts on the right side as
as it progresses I can point to just
off-center, to the right of my belly
button, extending up to my last floating
rib.

If Any-one Got Sick Accidentally Posted: 08-31-05 00:40am
:o if any-one has got sick after
accidentally drinking bad/mouldy apple
juice, please tell about your experience
and what your doing about it… harmful
bacterium/pathogens/e-coli
:? I have been infected with three forms
of harmful bacterium/pathogens/e-coli:
enterobacter cloacae, citrobacter freund,
proleus vulgaris.
They have been and are, no-fun...!
:?: * I am led to believe that these 3
harmful bacterium (above) are natural to
the human intestines; I am uncertain of
this fact. Would anyone have any main
street medicine quote (s) to support that
these harmful bacterium/pathogens are not
natural to the human intestinal
tract/body..?
:( my health problems all started
(febuary/04) soon after accidentally
drinking mouldy apple juice. 3 weeks
later I lost 35 pounds, it become very
painful to breath, my skin face-arms-
torso & my legs turned (completely) a
yellow/green color, mental fuzziness, a
constant sweat musty odour to my breath
accompanied by a persistent toxic cough,
back of tongue hart a lot & it was
swollen all the time – I would slur when
talking, sever burning/stinging all
through my intestinal tract, mostly
constipation, food came out the same way
it when in, my skin would just tare open
at the slightest touch, urine turned very
dark & had a scanty odour, no energy,
and for the first year I slept about 13
hours a-day.
:) i’ve since gained my weight back
(with great difficulty), but it can still
fluctuate 5 to 10 lbs over a day or two.
My symptoms are now not as bad, but still
persist to be a daily problem… I think?
I am getting better…
:?: if any-one else has had, or is having
a similar experience after getting
bad/mouldy apple juice, I would like to
(if you don’t mind) know about your
experience and what your doing about
it…
:idea: * if anyone is knowledgeable or
has had any luck on how to kill these
harmful bacterium/pathogens, it would
totally be appreciated…
