I had the occasional flare-ups (about every 3 months or so). Two years ago I had my gallbladder removed. After a HIDA Scan it was discovered that my gallbladder was only working at 13% so they removed it. I feel as though my life has been going down hill ever since. The diarrhea has gotten so much worse; so bad that for the past year I barely leave the house. I’m so desperate and just want answers. I was doing research on Lupus one day, (every now and then my face gets really red and feels very hot), because of my face turning bright right every now and the and found this disease called Carcinoid Tumors/Syndrome. My heart dropped when I read all the symptoms and how most patients have been diagnosed with some type of IBS before being diagnosed with this. What can you tell me about carcinoid tumors and how can I get a doctor to listen to me. I’ve been living with episodes of diarrhea for about 13 years now; the last year being the worst. My last colonoscopy (March 2012) didn’t show any signs of chrons. My gastroenterologist couldn’t understand why I was still having symptoms (at this point I was taking about 15 pills a day). I recently went to go see a doctor and brought this up and she just kind of smiled and said I’ll look into it (a month ago). She finally called me back and said she didn’t know much about the disease and that I should call her as soon as I get insurance (I lost my job in July 2012 along with my health insurance). She also said that a couple more weeks wasn’t going to change any outcome at this point. Please help. I’m totally desperate to start living my life again.
