Relief from?
I need help. I've grown dependent on colonics, and I'm not sure what to do to escape. I know that colonics deplete the gut of flora, but nothing else seems to give me relief.
I don't eat grains, dairy (cept butter/ghee), nightshades, nuts, fruit, etc. The only sugary things I eat are butternut squash and carrots. I eat 2-4 tablespoons of coconut oil every day. I take a pretty broad and strong dose of probiotics daily (VSL #3, FemDophilus, rotations of Saccaromyces Boulardii, etc).
I eat homemade yogurt daily (using macadamia nuts, coconut water, probiotic powder, and a yogurt maker).
I'm getting about 50-70 grams of protein a day in the form of poultry, eggs, and whey protein. I am 110 pounds.
I know candida has been excessive in the past, but I feel like it is somewhat under control, although I do still get oral thrush, but I have no sugar cravings.
My sleep has improved as a of late, so I am starting to exercise more ([I am quite out of shape).
I've also been eating bone broth on more and more of a daily basis; I got some quality grass-fed marrow bones from U.S. Wellness Meats.
Sometimes magnesium citrate does the trick, and sometimes it doesn't. I take Betaine HCl with and after most of my meals; I know I have low stomach acid because it takes a lot for me to feel that slight burn. I also take glutamine, black walnut, cod liver with butter oil, and a multivitamin. They are all allergen free. There is some maltodextrin and magnesium stearate in some of my supplements, but I didn't notice much difference when I avoided it.
What am I missing? Any advice would be much appreciated.

I would also suggesting having the abdominal pain medically evaluated, if you have not already done so. You'll want to rule out intestinal growths and the like.
