No blood in stool.

I have also wondered about leaky gut -but there is literally no pain or discomfort. she looks very healthy.

I know a lot of older women who would binge eat and have very strange bowel complications. They wouldn't tell the doctors what they were doing, so the doctors were always stumped. We typically think of younger women when we talk about eating disorders, but the shame and stigma keep most people from telling others.


OP here - for sure no eating disorders. forgot to mention in my original post that in between these bouts, her BMs would return to normal as if nothing ever happened.

I would go see a different gastro doc. for 2nd opinion and a different perspective.

Any blood in the stool?
