Hi candi~ hope that you are doing better with all of this..it sounds like it has been a real trial. My grandmother use to have problems like what you described, and back then,they did not have all the tests like they do now... but something that you said about your stomach was not digesting the fats.... My grama did not have the right kinds of stomach acid, or enough of it to help digest certain foods properly. Her dr. prescribed some sort of acid for her to take... that was then... now they probably have a better alternative. I know that you have the problem with reflux, but even a minute amount of stomach acid can do that, if your body is not working in sync with itself. Anyhow~ pls. no one yell at me, if I am way off base here... I am just sharing what caused my grama to have the same symptomology.
