I would appreciate some feedback. Three weeks ago I developed what I thought was an intestinal flu. I became dehydrated and had dangerously low potassium, which affected my heartbeat. Went to the hospital and they gave me potassium. Since then, I cannot eat any solid food without horrible gas, bloating, constant bowel movements from constipation to diarrhea and back again, and pain that keeps me up at all hours of the night. I'm not running a temperature, and my Nexium stopped working, so I tried Prilosec. That didn't help either. I love to eat, but I cannot tolerate the extreme pain anymore. My hemorrhoids are so inflamed and sore, and I bleed terribly when I go to the toilet (which can be upwards of 15x a day). Any advice?

well i'd go back to ur doctor, but untill then stick to plain foods. rice with chicken broth, bread (just plain bread, nothing too fancy) maybe plain eggs, no cheese, no sugar, NO FRUIT! fruit will mess u up real bad. and drink LOTS of fluids like water and gatorade. no fruit juices or sodas. i hope u get better :) i love food too

I hate to say this..and you probably don't have it but it sounds like Crohn's Disease, which is a inflammatory bowel disease brought on by some foods. It can be serious when you don't know the kinds of food you can eat, but once you're well educated about what you can eat it's much less of a problem for people with the disease. Look it up, it's worth it to explore every idea if you're feeling so bad...Hope things work out for you!

Most of your symptoms sound like mine. I have CELIAC. You won't know for sure if it's Crohns or Celiac until you see an internal specialist and have at least an ENDOSCOPY test.
