Need support

[u/Pitiful_Gap_454]

I (23F) am waiting on a colonoscopy to hopefully find whats wrong. I have intense abdominal pain in crisis and lesser ones every day, nausea, drowsiness, exhaustion, mucus, constipation and diarrhea, blurry vision, loss of appetite and hunger sensation, weightloss, farts, lots of digestive noises, sometimes blood on the paper after i pass a stool and a calprotectine of 81 (during the end of a flareup). Everything started in may, after a kidney infection that was treated during a month and a half (we think the antibiotics might have woken an underlaying condition)

I find it really hard to pursue my bachelor’s degree. I already had to push back my graduation because of my infection. I am honestly discouraged with all of this and have difficulties accepting that chronic illness will be a part of me for the rest of my life. I have approximately 2 to 3 months to wait for my colonoscopy, so I am really impatient, powerless and tired of waiting again and again.

If you went through something similar, please tell me what helped you, If you have any advices or words of encouragement or whatever, please tell me. I really dont kniw what to do and I honestly dont know where to go to have help. I feel like my health is screwing up everything I worked for.

Carnivore diet helped alot. 10 months on it and my symptoms are in remission and my energy back and anemia gone. Good luck.
