I have had the same symptoms in the pas and currently. My findings is that the cause is an uninvited dinner guest.
it's called "Giardia Lamblia" it is a parasite! 20% of North American get it but doctors are not accustomed to the symptoms. If you go to a third world Dr. he would prescribe a 2 pill remedy. The only drug approved for treating giardiasis in the U.S. is furazolidone (Furoxone) for 7-10 days.

a little more reading on the subject: www.medicinenet.com/giardia_lamblia/article.htm (be sure to read the patients comments on page 5)
