I miss having insurance... So until then maybe I need to do the following:

1. Cut out spicy foods
2. Cut down even more on beer and booze
3. Cut out my dairy for a while, cuz this does sometimes cause me to have explosions..
4. Start taking more good bacteria pills.
5. Try to stress alot less.. lol good luck with that one..
It could be a bunch of different things, mine turned out to be IBS but it was misdiagnosed as colitis for a while.

You can try all kinds of things, but the wrong thing can hurt you as much as help.

It sucks not to have insurance.....but I hope you'll sincerely consider this.

Take what you spend for one week on spicy foods, beer and booze - and use it to go to a gastroenterologist. It may or may not be all you need - but when I found the right guy, I only needed one visit and I was fixed.....$250 and I was done (except for the monthly cost of Miralax and probiotics).
There are times that you can wait to go see the doctor. This isn't one of them.
I really hope you'll consider it.
