While I am certainly no vet, I wouldn't discount the effects that pain can have on the body. I think that every dog deals with pain differently.
Parasites can be tough to get rid of, but I have to ask if the vet tested for a parasite. Some vets will medicate for a parasite without ever determining if there is one or not. I know that my son's newf was treated for parasites over and over and over again - and the whole time it was an allergy to barley causing his problems. Once we got him off the barley, his chronic diarrhea cleared right up.
