Doctors Don't Know What This Is...Help Anyone?

[Guest guest]

I've been experiencing abdominal pain to the left and above my navel.

The pain sometimes flares out to the hip/flank area. I've also had

shooting pains up my rectum. My poops alternate between normal and

covered with mucous. In fact, several times all I poop is pure mucous.

Sometimes I get very constipated, then loose and usually bloated and

sometimes nausea. My butt has also been very, very itchy. And lots of

fatigue. I've been experiencing this for about 6-8 months. I've had

upper GIs, lower GIs, x-rays, blood work, etc. I've been tested for

parasites and heavy metals but the tests back normal. My white blood

cell count was normal. I had a colonopscopy and several bioposies. The

small intestine was normal but the large intestine came back with mucous

near the opening of the small intestine. In fact you could see the

mucous there during the colonopscopy. The GI doctor said the mucous is

not IBS or Chrons or anything my body is causing. He said that it is due

to an outside factor causing my body to react this way. Something

environmental. The thing is my whole family is being affected by this in

varying degrees. My husband has the pain, the itch but so far not the

mucous. My children have had the itch and some of the pain and nausea.

We've switched to bottled water and had some mold tests done but so far

nothing. I would think if it mold it would be more respiratory. It seems

like the itchy butt is when it lessens, the painful shooting pain up the

butt is when it is very irritated. At first, a nurse said internal

hemmeroids but nothing was found. We were even treated for pinworms as a

precautionary although nothing was found.

 

Can anyone think what might be causing this? I thought parasites but the

tests came back normal. And the mucous is something I haven't read about

before. We've gone on filtered water, unfiltered water, had a mold test

in the house, etc. Nothing. Even switched refrigerators thinking

something was in the water line.

 

Any help would be appreciated. I keep being sent to one doctor after

another and they all say, " I Don't know. "
