Never Ending Digestive Discomfort

So along with my ovarian cyst problem, I also have some digestive issues. About a year ago I went on vacation. I had what I though was really bad food poisoning. I was in the bathroom at least 20 times a day and just felt really sick. My stool was mostly some kind of mucus, it was just really disgusting. I even lost about 10 lbs. When I came back home I went to a gastroenterologist. He ran a fecal and it came back clear for any bacteria. He gave me antibiotics just to be safe.

So its been a year now and I am still experiencing similar symptoms. I have had blood in my stool now off and on for a year. One week I will be constipated and the next it could be diarrhea. Its very unpredictable, I never know when it is going to happen. Then I will have one week where I am completely normal. It has really left me drained. I used to be very active, but I just don't have the energy any more
