Hi I've posted my story before but, here I go again. I'm 29 have been suffering with constant nausea and pain in the pit of my stom since I was little. I had bad diah. for about 3 years but, that is gone now. I have alot of gas and cramping and sometimes loose stool. I never get constipated. I get dizzy, shaky, and tired when I haven't had a bowel movement in a while.I have inflamation throughout my body constantly. I've been on an elimination diet by my allerist and it seemed to help a little. Fiber makes it alot worse as does any acid reducer (prilosec previcid ect.) I've tried acidopholus it seems to help when I have what I call an attack when my "normal" pain gets severe for a few days. I've had every horrible invasive test at least once. I've been diagnosed with IBS, gastritis, Gerd OCD and many others. I'm sick here and I'm getting no help from the doctors what do I do. I've also taken anti-nausea meds. What do you guys think? Thanks a bunch Diane

How does fiber make your stomach problems worse?

You could consider adding calcium supplements to help your diarrhea. This encourages your large intestine to absorb water back naturally, helping your stools to become more bulky, thus reducing stomach pains also.

Sometimes acid reducers do not work, or may work for a short period and then stop, because you may not have too much acid in your stomach, but rather the opposite. Also, depending on what other medication you have taken in the past, IBS and stomach symptoms can be caused by leaky gut, where the gut lets certain substances through which it should not do, due to increased permeability due to some inflammation.

I would suggest that you maybe go and see either a Naturopathic Doc or a Nutritional Therapist. Either of these two would be able to test your stomach acid to see whether it is in fact too acid or too alkaline and you could need some digestive enzymes if these are indicated.

Anyway, give it a go and see. You have nothing to lose and you may feel better.

Good luck
