Hey, sorry to hear you're still having this chronic pain. My common bile duct and pancreatic duct were also shown to be dilated but that is not unusual based on the symptoms we are having. And the scans/tests/endoscopy/colonoscopy I had were negative, like yours. The local GI dr. diagnosed me with Functional Dyspepsia and with some of the symptoms you're describing you may want to research that. The only thing that seems to slightly ease that burn for me is an ice pack to my upper abdomen. It doesn't seem to matter what I eat so, I'm trying to eat smaller amounts to see if that helps. And when I see my primary doctor in December I'm going to ask him to refer me to a GI Dr. in another town for second opinion. It certainly was better when I was a nurse taking care of patients as opposed to being one.

Dyspepsia has been dx in my chart. Drs in mi don't tell you. Be glad we have access. Been on protonix 40mg 22 y's. Personally, i think if we discipline ourself in GERD diet, though 1st impressions - it's limited - I'll starve.
We will not. Take what you knows eatible, be creative. Heating pad, hot bath soaks, put hot wash cloth on belly in tub. Do you alternate ice ?
