GI needed in Eastern MA, US

Hello, does anyone have a GI dr in eastern Ma or Boston area who actually listens & is willing to test for sibo?

I’m very ill, emaciated, unable to eat much. I’ve had slow motility for years but the last 3 months I have horrid explosive diarrhea, steatorreah, terrible gas that I can’t pass unless with bms.

I’ve swollen sentinel nodes in neck ( painful) with suddenly painful joints in hips & knees. It’s getting hard to walk. I’ve never had arthritis.

I think I have an infection but I need a proper dr who will actually do a test.

Thank you.

You also need a good internist. There should be many in the Boston area. I believe Mass. General is a Harvard teaching hospital. Try there.

Not what you're looking for?
