Hi Hadar,

I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concerns.

You say to have conducted various lab tests including complete blood count where eosinophils were found elevated. This is indicating a state of allergy reaction in your body.
With regards to other blood components, I'd prefer to have a look at the full report if you do not mind. So please send the full report to me to analyze the findings myself. I want to see if any stool test has been conducted so far (including stool culture for candida).

FODMAPS diet you have been put for a few months is recommended in patients with IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) as long as no gluten intolerance was found and colonoscopy was irrelevant.

As I was going through your medical history, I did not notice anything regarding upper endoscopy. If I was your caring doctor would recommend to run upper endoscopy to rule out hyperacidity issues of the stomach.

For the moment, I'd advise to continue with FODMAPS diet, increase fluids intake and physical activity. Continue taking probiotics, have frequent meals and in small portions.

Hope this helps.
