I have been dealing with serious stomach problems for almost 20 years. This is not something new. This followed me for two decades.
I have bloating almost every day. A lot of gases. Sometimes pressure in my stomach like something is stretching inside. And the worst part is urgency — sudden need to go to the bathroom even when I don’t feel ready. It affects daily life more than people think.
I tried to get help. I went to doctors. I asked questions. But I didn’t get much real help from Kaiser. Most of the time it felt like basic answers, no deep analysis. After so many years, I realized if I want real answers, I need to start analyzing everything myself.
So I turned to AI.
Now I analyze everything:
- What I eat
- How I train and how hard I push my body
- My current medications
- My stress level and nervous system
I think I may have pinpointed the main problem, but it is still too early to say 100%. After 20 years, I don’t want to rush conclusions.
So far, I am doing much better. My stomach feels calmer. Urgency is less. Gas is more controlled. But I have to be very careful.
I am also dealing with liver cirrhosis, and that alone needs special attention. I cannot experiment like a healthy person. Every food change, every supplement, every adjustment has to be calculated. My liver condition changes the whole strategy.
My life has been relatively good. I don’t regret anything, and I never will. Everything I went through made me who I am.
But now I want to prove something — first to myself, and then to the rest of the world — that I am capable of beating anything that stands in front of me.
Life is too short for me to give up. That is not an option.
Either I win, or I go down like many before me — but I will give everything I have before that moment ever comes. And when I say everything, I mean everything. No excuses. No quitting.
AI is helping me as much as it can. But I also understand AI can be wrong sometimes. That means I still have to use my brain, track symptoms, test changes carefully, and make smart decisions.
This is not just about gas or bloating.
This is about finally understanding what has been happening inside my body for 20 years — while protecting my liver at the same time.
Tonight I have to go give blood for my CT scan on Friday. I need to be ready for that. Step by step. One test at a time. One battle at a time.
God bless you all.
I’m still here. And I’m not done.
