I have a rather unfortunate predicament - not only do I have IBS, gluten-intolerance and multiple food sensitivities, but I also have urinary problems and if one ailment gets aggravated so does the other...and If I try to treat one ailment, the other one suffers. Its a vicious cycle and its seems like theres just no hope.

I used to take supplements to treat my prostate and had great success, however, this was before I developed the digestive problems. so now those supplements have an adverse effect. The problem is im just sensitive to everything and I still cant find a happy medium to facilitate my recovery.

To spell it out here's an example...I eat something...constipates me..causes bloat and puts pressure on my bladder...this causes an increase in urination...straining to go to the bathroom puts even more pressure on my prostate and bladder and makes urination even more uncomfortable.

I guess Ideally this can be resolved if I can just have a normal BM every day, but I am yet to find something that works. fiber is a no go, magnesium & laxative type supplements puts my colon in a spastic state and also aggravates my urinary issues...

as you can see I am at a loss. i'd really appreciate any suggestions cause I feel like im living in hell and Im at the point where im so depressed and disgusted with myself that i dont want to work or leave the house

Was it Georges? All of the irritating properties of the latex are removed leaving the healing properties in tact. I do not tolerate any others, but this really soothes me. I take it anytime my GI gets irritated.

Shay, does George's have a taste to it? Also, do you only drink this when you are having GI issues?

Jason-

Have you ever heard of Zija?

www.drinklifein.com

Its an amazing natural supplement drink - tastes like green tea - not only helps with nutritional deficiencies it also sooths your gastro tract and aids digestion.

I have tried it and love it. Maybe it will help you?

P.S. I swear I'm not affiliated! :)

George's taste just like purified water. I mean I can tell it isnt just water, but it doesnt really have a taste. If that makes sense. The density is a little different or something, but it tastes just fine. Not bitter at all.

I generally only take it when I feel the need. And I feel it right now. I just picked up a jug this morning. I had some really spicy curry the other night and things just havent felt right since. So I will drink 2 oz in the morning and again in the after noon. Twice a day works good or me. I will take it for about a week or so....

What do you think about Cold Pressed Flax seed oil. I started that recently. Can you tell me if you think it soothes? I feel like it is helping. Thanks

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative.

      I see it everyday on my feeds. They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts. I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field. Some days I would just like to scream. So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach...

      Thank you for the kind words! I keep thinking that things in the medical community are improving, but a shocking number of people still post here who have already discovered gluten is their issue, and their doctors ordered a blood test and/or endoscopy for celiac disease, yet never mentioned that the protocol for such screening requires them to be eating...

While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.

      Thank you for the kind words! I keep thinking that things in the medical community are improving, but a shocking number of people still post here who have already discovered gluten is their issue, and their doctors ordered a blood test and/or endoscopy for celiac disease, yet never mentioned that the protocol for such screening requires them to be eating gluten daily for weeks beforehand. Many have already gone gluten-free during their pre-screening period, thus their test results end up false negative, leaving them confused and sometimes untreated. It is sad that so few doctors attended your workshops, but it doesn't surprise me. It seems like the protocols for any type of screening should just pop up on their computer screens whenever any type of medical test is ordered, not just for celiac disease--such basic technological solutions could actually educate those in the medical community over time.
