> Thanks so much for all of your input Larry, after reading some of your other posts, I was hoping you'd chime in :)

To answer your questions:
When he eats any raw vegetables, they come through looking like you chewed them up, and that's it! His pain is not temporarily relieved by bowel movements, or really by anything! He in in constant pain (about a 7 on a scale of 1-10) all the time. Now, several things could bump that number up to an 8 or 9, like eating, physical activity or stress.

We have tried different enzyme supplements, with no relief, but then, we found the best of all supplements an organic hemp protein shake, whose ingredients included, probiotics, omegas 3-6, enzymes, amino acids, vitamins and minerals. It was called Shape Shift from Living Harvest. Keith used this product for 3 months, and experienced total remission of symptoms! Then, they discontinued that product. AAAAHHHHGGGGHHHHH!!!
I am in the process now, of trying to find out how to duplicate the effects of that product by combining several different products - and well, (thousands of dollars later), hopefully, I'll find the right combo.

> Automatic surgical behaviour - yes indeed! And I absolutely agree with the idea that his entire gut, including flora, enzymes, amino acids, and as a result of all of the former, now even the hormones that regulate everything are all out of whack.

The Doctors naturally don't lend any validity to any of this and have not done testing for it - because by now, they think we are just nutz.

This is what has led me to alternative options. Thank you for the recommendation of the Kirkmann products, we will give them a try.

We have tried elimination diets, with not much improvement (he aviods dairy anyway) - the gluten issue is soooo hard to accomplish, but we are willing to give it another run.

Psych meds are still suspect, and eventually, we would like to see those go too, but like you said, chicken or the egg?

Thank you so much for your input, I really appreciate it. It's so great to have someone to bounce stuff off of - besides my husband, who is sick of hearing me talk about Cholecystokinin and Gastric Inhibitory Peptide! :)

We now have another issue regarding pain pill addiction that is surfacing because of all this. I'll have to post that all later, but a quick question... If someone fits the criteria for "over-methylation" - should they maybe not be perscribed methadone? Or are the two totally unrelated? Again, THANKS!
