celiac disease, sick for over a yr.
-has a sliding hiatus hernia and barrett
esophagus
-family history of multiple sclerosis,
chron's disease(being tested for), high
blood pressure, cancer.
-symptoms are as follows, in order of
appearance:

-abdominal pain is nearly constant, but
'flares down' randomly. Worsened by
stress.
If anyone has similar symptoms, or knows
anything helpful, please let me know.
This sickness has forced me to temporarily
drop out of school and go on sick leave
from work. I am in nearly constant pain,
and the doctors are taking forever ... Thanks.

Hi, I hope you are doing well. You really
should see a doctor. It's best to consult
a professional (and get second opinions!)
it's the best way to set your mind at ease
by truly knowing.
