At mention of a naturopath I wonder whether it is not worth asking them (not necessarily the doctor) about pyroluria AKA pyrrol disorder - a hereditary condition that involves metabolic difficulties with availability of zinc and vitamin B6; and furthermore possible MTHF metabolism anomalies.
These conditions are viewed with skepticism by orthodox medicine; yet they were producing symptoms not unlike yours in me for some years. H+ ion inhibitors (or whatever - I've forgotten) were unhelpful; I had duodenal ulcers; I also had significant difficulty swallowing.
With the judicious supplementing of a few vitamins and minerals that suffering is now behind me. There do not seem to be any fundamental food sensitivities although initially my symptoms were linked to particular food intake.
Please contact me via PM if you would like a copy of a summary I have written on these topics.
