Here is something strange. I have constant intestine issues, i go poop 4-10x a day, for 25 years now. Except when i go sleep in a new place like vacations, i wont poop for 4 days in a row.

it's normal, at least from my experience. i hypothesize it is related to being vulnerable to predators while stopping somewhere to poop in an unfamiliar environment.
but it sounds like you are also eating something your body doesn't like. for example, before i discovered i was allergic to gluten, i would also poop dozens of small sessions per day. all that went away after doing an elimination diet (systematically introducing 1 new ingredient at a time until you find the problems).

A more efficient method is a skin allergy test (skin prick test). It allows for testing lots of allergens in parallel.

A quick search shows that it works for gluten intolerance/celiac disease too.
My mom went through this back in the 80s or so after having mysterious issues - turned out it was raw(ish) onion that was the culprit.

Doesn’t help with carbohydrate intolerances. If there’s any carb structure your body can’t crack apart, you will get those exact symptoms due to over feeding the microbiome.

Sorry, gluten intolerance, and there are many variationions - I have a form with an occurrence of one in 10,000, possible 1 in 100.000 - CON NOT be diagnosed with a prick test. A wheat allergy, which is a totally different thing, might be.

What have your doctor(s) said on your condition? Name of your medical condition?

Tests and tests,no one knows, i gave up on diagnosing, its none of the usual conditions. It gets better if i eat exclusively rice and water for a week but i cant be bothered to do that.

I had gut issues and the tests didn’t show anything, I went primal (like paleo but with dairy and using a blender to make shakes) and I’m fine now.
I’d second the other comments and suggest you research SIBO, gluten intolerance, and fringe diets such as paleo; and do an elimination diet.
