Since 2021 I have had severe abdominal pain, can’t eat or drink water for having severe pain around my belly button, actually if take a vitamin it hurts. I have many Ct scans, X-rays, 3 colonoscopies, 3 EGD’s, Colonoscopies showed I had polyps 1 in the transverse and 1 hepatic flexure. They were tublar adenoma. The EGD that I just had a few weeks ago reveal several polyps in my stomach and inactive gastritis and inflammation. But I have very few bowel movements and I have had blood! Colonoscopies always show unremarkable, Some thing is being missed I have been living with 3 1/2 years, it just seem like doctor don’t care figure out what is wrong. Please any advice I appreciate.

Sounds like you've also had an upper endoscopy. Is that when the stomach polyps were discovered? John's Hopkins has a fantastic gastroenterology department. Whe a large polyp was discovered in my duodenum I was very lucky to get an appointment quickly for removal. I was even luckier to get Dr. Mouen Khashab as my doctor. I wonder if they might help. Are you on original medicare with a supplemental?

Have you been breath tested for SIBO? Those are the symptoms I had. I have had to go on a gluten free, low FODMAP and limited dairy diet. It works well.
