OK, this is a little embarrassing to put out there, but I really  
would like to know.
Whenever I get an accidental contamination or have a reaction to  
another food (I have a fair amount of food intolerance's), one of the  
symptoms that sets in within a few hours is significant rectal pain/ 
pressure that radiates up around the rectal/colon area about the size  
of a baseball and increases with intensity lasting many hours to a  
day. Aside from the bloating, brain fog, fatigue and achiness that  
comes on with exposures, this rectal thing is very bothersome, aka a  
'pain in the a#$"
I've gone to a GI doc at a good hospital (Thomas Jefferson  
University), had a Colonoscopy and they didn't find hemorrhoids which  
seemed like a semi-obvious thing to look for, although strange that  
it comes along with exposures.
I do have endometriosis and during a laporoscopy 7.5 years ago they  
did find some on my utereosacral ligament (connects uterus to  
sacrum).  Moving bowls can be painful around ovulation and just  
before cycle begins, as everything is a little swollen and tender.  I  
don't know if this could be the culprit and if so why it's so intense  
if accidentally contaminated.
I don't want to overlook anything..however don't want to be paranoid  
either. I'm 35, went 15 years undiagnosed, always symptomatic,  
however went 'full blown' with incapacitating symptoms after getting  
a 3-wk flu with a death in the family at the same time.  Just prior  
to the illness, I'd been on a 5 month intense candida program to  
eliminate yeast overgrowth which I had a horrendous time with in  
terms of die off.  I don't believe the yeast is gone, but could no  
longer keep making myself so ill when I had a little boy who was sick  
and my husband was (and is) beyond drained. Detoxifying was and still  
is and issue.
I apologize if there's too much detail, I just need to get this  
figured out and thought the additional info may be relevant.
If I found out others had this same symptom, it may put my mind at ease.
I'm also open to any other thoughts or suggestions about this
Thanks so much,
Sherri from NJ (again today)
