Problems with my carburetor

I have a CD 200 for the last year and its been an absolute pleasure riding my bike, i keep a hand on it and do regular services, i made a huuge mistake by letting some idiot interfere with my carb because he told me he can set it to run much faster and blah blah bah, long story short, i think he changed or swopped my jets or needle or something because my bike has never been the same after that. It ran nice for a few days than refused to start. Finally had someone check it out and i was told that the jets were the wrong size, i baught some jets of a origional cd 200 carb and a mech fitted it on for me, set my tappets and my bike was running like a dream again only to my displeasure, she only lasted 3 days and it wouldnt start one morning again. Went back to the same mech and he set it again and it ran even better this time but only lasted 3 days and this morning it wouldnt start again? What could be causing this? seems to be overfueling or not getting fuel? i am not too sure? no one i speak to can figure this out? im beginning to think that it might not just be the jets that was swopped from my carb from that skelm b@stard??? could it be he also swopped the needle or what else could he have done to my bike to make this happen!
