Worrying trapped wind and cramping.

Worrying trapped wind and cramping.

Hi, I began to feel very fatigued a few years ago, and at the same time started to get a lot of painful trapped wind. I have had blood testsa nd since been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome. However I also have some really bad digestive problems which havn't been explained.

I get really bad trapped wind and flatulance, and also painful cramps and spasms coming from below my belly button. I get diahorrea (no blood) badly, especially in the mornings. I've also noticed that if I don't eat often, every 2 hours or so, I go really shaky, pale and weak and am desperate to eat something. I think this might be a blood sugar problem. About a year ago all these symptoms seemed to get a lot worse for no reason.

I don't think it's IBS, but so far after a colonoscopy, endoscopy and blood tests, nothing has come back. I have tried changing my diet to get rid of Candida, but it didn't help and it feels like something more severe is happening. Does anyone have a clue what could be wrong,

I also have had abnormal liver functions tests: high bilirubin.... don't know if that connects or not.

It sounds like a blood or glucose problem.  Maybe you're just dehydrated.  Being dehydrated makes you feel pretty crummy.  I have the same problems you do with IBS and chronic fatigue.  I take Adderall (adderrall) XR because I have narcolepsy.  Maybe you should check out a sleep lab?

I'm not sure, the main problems are the stomach cramps and diahorea...

I was admitted into hospital a few weeks ago; I started getting really bad cramps, pain and running to the loo. I has a load of tests, all normal. The Specialist said I has Visceral pain, related to my ME and mentioned Neuropathy. He put me on Amytriptaline which has helped the pain.

I am now stook at home, with some sort of motility problem. I can't eat anything without going into cramps and spasms. My temperature is all over the place, I'm sweating, got a constant headache and am afraid to eat anything.

If anyone understands these problems, which might be gastroparesis or something related, please could you help with any advice.?
