Hi guys,
I have had a stomach problem for 3 years. Constant pain and diarrhea. It all started when I went to a wilderness camp in grade 10 where I got sick from what I think was drinking the water so I caught some sort of a parasite. I never had stomach problems before this but from then on in I have never got better. About 6 months after the camp I was given Gardia antibiotics which did nothing. After the doctors just put it off as IBS I went and saw a Naturapath who said I had Candida and put we on a Candida diet which is basically nothing. I have cut diary, gluten, sugar, preservatives, yeast u name it out of my diet which I have now been on for a year. I have got a bit better but am still really bad! I mean if I have cut this much out of my diet how can I still be bad. I have decided to go back to the doctors and ask to get a colongoscapy because mates have told me that I probably still have a parasite as I never got sick before that camp. Would anyone have any ideas of what I have or treatments? I don't want to have to be stuck on this stricter diet forver. I mean I turn 18 soon and I won't even be able to have alcohol without spending the night on the toilet! Please help.
