Long story short... my stomach problems have intensified significantly. My abdomen hurts most of the time, I can't eat much even with herbal treatments, food feels like its getting caught on something in the middle of my stomach... and in general, I suspect something is rather wrong

I would suggest that if they do an endoscopy they also consider taking biopsies while they are in there. (That's what I would do if you were a dog or cat at least!)

Have your stress levels been up because of your grandma etc? That could be playig a role here. Don't be offended if they suggest some counseling. It never hurts to learn some de-stressing techniques (says the queen of stress attacks!)

I agree with Indi ... although I'll also add sugar. Don't forget the sugar. :-)

Heh. I actually bought some, but haven't used it yet. Lately, I've been compensating for my general lack of appetite by taking advantage of the insatiable midnight munchies that (now) wake me around 2:30 AM each night. The amount I'll be able to eat varies, but I'll feel just as ravenous regardless of how much I've eaten until, at some point, my appetite suddenly shuts off again like a switch.

I'll mention that to them.

Well... I wouldn't be offended, but a little surprised. It seems more likely to me that they're going to suggest antibiotics.

Thanks. *hugs*
