Hi Martin,

I've been away from the boards for a while, so I've only just seen your post.

First thing... have you seen a gastroenterologist? I saw one on BUPA, but you should get to see one on the NHS (which I agree is shiit!). Similarly, allergen tests should be available on the NHS. You could try getting a referral to an alternative doctor. I saw one years ago for migraines and had allergy/deficiency/etc tests done then. They could also help with giving up smoking and stress.

Thinking about the NHS, you can get a pre-paid prescription certificate which will save you loads. They're about £35 for 3 months and you can get as many prescriptions as you want. I use these to try and stock up. Go back for a new prescription before you've finished the last one.

Diet-wise, I've found that Heather's books and this site are the best source of info out there. Get the books and read them. This site is a fantastic source of recipes and help.

At the end of the day, a dietician can't help you if you're not helping yourself. You need to give up the junk food and start looking after yourself before there's any point in seeing someone like this. Harsh, but true.
