When I eat I have severe abdominal pain within 20 minutes starting under my ribcage and ending in my pelvic area. Followed by Diarrhea that more often then not has undigested food in it.

Happens to me too. Intestines/stomach need enzymes to digest the food we eat. An endoscopy found I have/had H.Pylori in in my small intestine. Did the antibiotics and they really wreaked me (Heard about Mastic Gum from Greece but went the doctor route and with the drugs and real bad side effects and then did the follow up breath test which said the critters were gone...but who knows!)

Probiotics and Enzimes are helping. I take Colon Greens a brand of combination of probiotics, enzymes and herbs to replace what is lacking in my gut and try to avoid the standard American diet (which I believe is the biggest cause of all our ills). This is the latest progression of me having HepC!! And I suspect all people with gut problems are infected...the medical people are just now discovering that the H.Pylori bacteria are the cause of ulcers, and more than likey, to my mind anyway, many of the bowel problems that have disease labels, like Chrons, IBS, etc. are the result of this infection. ITS THE LITTLE THINGS!!
