Have the doctors run any tests on you - any colonoscopies, endoscopies, etc.?  Have they checked for Crohn's disease or celiac disease?

You talked to your GI doctor?  Call him back & tell him no improvement with meds.  They should do a scan if you are not better.  I don't know what else to say to do.
