What is your question?
Ok so i had a radiator leak but drove my car for about a month just because my car never overheated, all i did was add more 50/50. I finally get this mechanic to replace my radiator, it was good for a day till i noticed all the anti-freeze leaking out of the car, bubbles forming in the anti-freeze tank and the car overheating. He said it was the thermostat, so i got that replaced as well, still over heated. Then he said it was the water pump. Replaced that as well, and still overheating. Now hes saying its the head gasket. I feel like hes playing guessing games, does anyone have an answer to my problem?

I think your both right, he was guessing and the head gasket may be bad. The mechanic should have checked for a bad head gasket when the bubbles were noticed since this is a sign of a bad head gasket. Did the mechanic perform a check to verify the leaking head gasket? The cooling system will have hydrocarbons in the coolant, and these can be detected with special equipment. Has the shop performed these tests?
