Bloating Update - Seeing Doctors in Mexico!

I can't believe it's been a year since I've had this issue with my bloating and I can't believe I'm doing another video but a lot of you are still also struggling and I wanted to share my journey because I'm still also struggling. so obviously i'm in mexico right now over here and um i went to see a gastrologist even though i actually haven't seen a gastrologist before uh so i decided to go and check out the doctors here anyway i'm living here now so i thought might as well so i went to see two different doctors one was like an official doctor who just tested me you know so we decided to check to do a scan called cat scan i don't know if any of you already tried he says that i could potentially have something called diverticular disease diverticular i don't know if i'm saying it right anyway um we don't know for sure it's basically in your lower colon which causes inflammation and from googling it um what i understand it means there are holes in your colon that could be caused by many many things and basically every time you eat or whatever and the food gets into these like little holes uh you get inflamed hence you get bloated so i don't know it sounds weird um but it's a really expensive scan to do but it is worth it i think and he said you know at least we eliminate that option if we don't have it and then um if we don't have it then he suggested to do another colonoscopy as you know I did colonoscopy in Latvia about well about nine ten months ago and I had a really traumatic experience those of you who follow me you know that in Latvia the hospital I wanted to do it which you know I didn't know I thought I'll be asleep but I wasn't asleep I don't know if they give me like a really small dose of sleeping things I was kind of like I was fully awake but i could feel everything so i was like very dizzy but i felt everything and uh you know i did colonoscopy and endoscopy at the same time and i passed out from the pain i was like screaming um and so they had to stop the procedure and obviously i fainted so i don't really remember much um well i just obviously i fainted from the pain so i've had like a really traumatic experience and even now like i still haven't recovered from that experience it's been really traumatic so you know if i'm gonna do another colonoscopy i need to make sure i'm like fast asleep and i don't feel nothing so so that that would be kind of like the next step all these tablets you know to take for a week this one's for 10 days i did try google them what they mean um i'm using like google translate but from my understanding like this one is the only english one i understand it's like to treat you know um stuff you know with the stomach basically h pylori infection um i don't know yes it's really interesting he's giving me tablets even though i don't know if i even have this but this one's something to do with h pylori this one to do something with your colon or digestive tract this one to do something else if any of you know more about these you can obviously leave the comments down below to let me know obviously i'm going to take them now i didn't think about it if i should take them or not because i'm not a big fan of pills but i'm going to trust the doctors and um yeah so yeah so he said i might have diverticulitis disease he also sent me to do more blood tests urine tests and just uh to check you know and then the gastrologist that i went to yesterday he's um sent me to do some poop tests very exciting can't believe i'm talking about this on social media this is what you go to but um you know this is life right so yeah i have to do that and we're also going to do um abdominal test so it's like an ultrasound i have done an ultrasound before in latvia and they didn't find anything but this ultrasound is like a different one i forgot the actual name so they're going to test my belly i can't eat or drink water for eight hours and then after they test me with ultrasound i have to go away eat something whatever i want for an hour come back and they do another test to see how i guess my you know whatever is is reacting so and this doctor said that i have um god i forgot the name of this another type of like just just just papitis whatever and i was so so sort of illness disease and so it's really interesting both of these doctors suggested I have something different um but I've never heard of these before so I thought I'll go ahead and they prescribed me all these tablets that I need to take so yeah that's kind of where I'm at now um what can I say you know I'm really frustrated I'm tired I'm frustrated of this whole situation um because I did see you know as you saw my progress I was getting better with a naturopathical doctor um he did heal my allergy it's completely gone however my bloat is not i'm still in a permanent bloating state uh like right now i'm fine you know i'm i'm just so used to this bloating like it's always bloated but it doesn't cause me like discomfort it's only if i touch it i have pain or you know sometimes i have pain but generally it's fine but it is really frustrating and it's really really sad how many people struggle with this i still get daily messages on social media i still get a lot of your comments i still get so many people they're saying to me like oh it's been five years i don't know i still haven't figured it out and that's really depressing for me because i have been you know i've spent so much time and energy and money on this in the last year trying to figure it all out and i know that it's not just one element now about you know my gut being inflamed you know it's stress it's sleep it's it's you know emotional state so i am actually tackling all these other areas as well you know and and that's why i'm here in mexico and i really feel less stressed than when i was in london and i'm working you know emotionally as well trying to figure out if there's any trapped emotions because here in mexico it's really funny they all kind of just say they do actually say it's all in your head uh which you know i'm i'm just in a good mood in a way so i'm not taking it personally but it did reach a stage where i just started getting pissed off like stop telling me it's in my head it's in my bloody body it's in my body like it's not in my head but they were just saying like it's like emotions like anger sadness whatever maybe emotions that you haven't actually lived through so they all live in your stomach and your lower abdomen and basically if you let it all go the blow is gonna go and i'm a big believer about emotions and i i think there is truth to it but i also think there's also science and there's a medical side to it so i think maybe a combination of these two together could work magic and that's what i'm essentially doing uh i'm also going to start working with another gut health and emotional eating person um she's like an expert she had bloating herself and we're gonna work together on all these elements basically for the next three months uh you know including my morning routine evening routine chakras which i don't know anything about but i was like you know what i'm open-minded um energy and you know different types of food elimination introducing things um you know using a diary of how i feel every day so really really tracking everything um and seeing you know hopefully we're gonna get rid of this whole thing and i can happily have my my beautiful flat stomach back and not feel pain anymore and i'm just generally so tired of this situation but i decided not to give up so that's kind of my update um let me know i did have an episode two weeks ago where it insanely bloated and i was in a lot of pain I had to cancel all my plans and I actually spent two days in bed literally wasn't able to move so I really don't wish this upon anybody it's really really annoying but at the same time I think you know I've been under a lot of stress in the last two years and I think I just need to give my body time to readjust and get back to normal state but anyway hopefully this was helpful maybe if you haven't gotten tested yourself for these things that I mentioned here today maybe do go ahead and do get tested uh and anyone who's struggling as well i'm just so sorry you're in this position because i know how frustrating it is i still am struggling myself but i'm so determined to figure out what it is and as soon as i do i'm gonna tell you of course because i want to help you guys as well so that's why i'm literally doing everything i can and um yeah try and i feel like i'm gonna get to the bottom of this like i'm not giving up all right and you shouldn't either so if you're if you're hearing this video if you're hearing this message just kind of give yourself a break and just keep going there is an answer i'm sure for it like we just can't just accept it can't just live with a bloat forever like no way no way i refuse to accept that um okay well let me know if any of you have found anything that worked for you or if there's anything else that you know you've tried obviously if you are new to my channel and you're watching this first time uh please do watch my other videos i have tried a lot of stuff and this is like one year in the making figuring it out um okay guys love you loads bye
