I don't have the same symptoms as you, but I hear where you are coming from about the help. It seemed to me that they decided what they thought was wrong then refused to budge.

Two weeks isn't such a long wait and the gastro department will be a lot more useful than your GP. I'm not sure the ultrasound is even that worthwhile to be honest. 

Don't overlook the fact that there are numerous, perfectly manageable conditions that would cause the same symptoms. 

In the meantime, perhaps try excluding potential culprits from your diet? 

Thanks for reply I have been excluding lots of things from diet and keeping a food diary even going gluten free but nothing seems to work. Was rushed into hospital earlier in the week Doc there diagnosed malabsorbtion but couldn't or wouldn't speculate on the cause. Just a waiting game by the looks of it and hope for a good outcome. Good luck to you as well

Hi Deez

Pancreatic C is my fear too ( justed posted) although my symptoms are different to yours. As PotbellyPookie says, these symptoms might relate to many conditions so hang in there but do politely push for further investigations/answers if you dont think you are neing heard.  Hope you get these and that they are positive. Perhaps the appt in a couple of weeks will help with this.  Good luck.

I guess every practice is different, but you could just push for a colonoscopy. I spoke to a few Drs at my surgery and I heard things like "I don't want to subject you to..." or "do you think you could face..." as though they were holding off referring me for my own sake.

I ended up calling and saying in no uncertain terms that I was more than happy to have anything shoved up my bum if it would help solve my issues. This actually worked to some degree and on that call they agreed to refer me to a colorectal surgeon for the procedure.

I went private in the end though - there's one hell of a waiting list by all accounts! But I would definitely suggest gently pushing for further investigation.

Thank you and best of luck 

Thanks I'm gonna suggest anything when I speak to Gastro in 10 days. Had a colonoscopy about 25 years ago but without anaesthetic it was like being dropped naked onto a garden shed from a plane had camera down throat about 3 years ago all that showed was a hiatus hernia. Good luck  

Had same symptoms for 2 yrs and three months had gastroscopy colonoscopy a full body ct scan a stool elastase test and blood tests all clear but still have floating pale stools stomach pain into back feeling sick hardly an appetite last amylase blood test normal doctor has no ide what it is but I'm convinced its PC I'm just waiting to die as feel so ill x hope you get some answers shortly 

Damn I feel your pain big time that's awful that they still can't find out whats wrong. Did you have a significant weight loss at all I have lost over a stone in 3 weeks. Hope you get some answers soon
