Friends,
I need your help. Any advice or words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated. For the past 2 months I have been experiencing the following symptoms, which are progressively getting worse: rapid, unexplained weight loss, nausea, food aversions (I'm not pregnant), lack of appetite, extreme lower back, upper abdominal, and lower abdominal pain (especially after eating), occasional vomiting, fainting, and very, very bad daily headaches. I have a J-pouch and I got scared once I started losing so much weight (I've lost 27 pounds and used to be at a healthy weight) so I went to my GI doctor. He has done every test under the sun and doesn't think anything is wrong with my stomach or my pouch. I have no health insurance at the moment so it's very hard to afford the bills, especially since I am too sick to work. Some days my body hurts and my bones hurt so badly that I can't even get out of bed. What is going on with me? I have no idea what to do!
