Severe stomach pain
I have had several years of pain in my stomach and not sure what to do. i have had ibs, acid reflux, gastritis, internal hemorrhoids. A few months ago I had a slighly irregular Z line, mildly erythematous found in the antrum and nodules were found in the ascendingn colon.
I have taken xypaxin for pain but it no longer helps. I throw up daily and have diarrhea, I have headaches. My stomach cramps so badly that I can go anywhere because of the pain. What should I do?

I have had the same issue and they removed my gallbladder and appendix thinking those were the issue. I am still having pains except now they include severe cramping pains. I hope you have found an answer and that the doctors are helping you. I am still on the search for an answer but so far no one is willing to help. People think I am crazy or making it up but the pain is real
Hello , i been having digestive problems for a really long time like 7 years I am 18 years old right now , my symptoms keep getting worse as the time passes I was able to eat more food like chips, pizza, 3 meals at home , and at restaurants now I can’t eat anything. I have changed my eating habits to just eating 1 time a day(dinner) but after I ate I get strong abdominal pain, pain chest ,and I have to sit in the restroom for like 1 hour or more because I can’t get up because of the pain. At night I can’t lay down because of the pain I have to sit on my bed , I poop a lot as if I have eaten a lot or 3 meals . The pain gets so bad that I cry . I wake up in the middle of the night rushing to the restroom and in the morning . I can’t keep living like this, I can’t go out to eat or eat anything because my stomach reacts the same way with everything. I don’t know what to do, I have gone to the doctor and they don’t give me anything they say I have IBS but I know it’s not , I know my body and I feel like it’s something worst. Can someone help me figured out what’s wrong with me .
Is it anything you eat? Have you had a colonoscopy? It could be IBS or something more severe like chrones disease or ulcerative colitis
Look up a stomach condition called Functioal Dyspepsia. Then look up a over the counter drug called FDguard. Same condition had all the tests and am on the repair. Post me if you need more info.
Hello @szelaya and welcome to Mayo Connect!
I am sorry to hear of your severe stomach symptoms. It sounds like it is impacting your eating, your health and also causing you a lot of anxiety which is certainly understandable. As you may know, on Mayo Connect, we cannot diagnose health problems, so we cannot figure out what is wrong.
However, you should undoubtedly be checked out by a doctor and perhaps have a referral to a doctor who specializes in gastrointestinal problems.
Have you seen a doctor yet?
I am sorry for how you have to live. I can relate to what you are saying. My life is so stressful not knowing what to do next. I have had major surgery due to blockage and polyps. I am very close to going on a liquid diet the wind is unbearable some days. My stomach is blown up with wind. Hoping for a better day tomorrow. Take care
Hi, my name Patricia
I have had problems with horrible stomach cramps for almost a year. No doctor seems to know why, i was diagnosed with a hiatal hernia a year ago. 6months ago the problem started at first stomach pains after eating, diarrhea, nausea, back pains, skin itching with sores on shoulders, no appetite. This lasted a few days, then months later same thing(this time lasting a week) Nov. This time it lasted a full month of serve stomach cramps after eating anything, diarrhea, nausea, itching, sores on shoulders etc. Went to doctor did blood work, everything normal. Told me see a gi doctor, so went a few weeks ago. Blood work, x-rays, CT, stool sample everything is normal. I just had a upper endoscopy the other day, did biopsies so now we wait some more. It's now when I eat dinner only I get those stomach cramps, sometimes they last over an hour, I feel bloated & it just hurts even touching my stomach. The doctors keeping putting off like I am crazy. Gi doctor says my itching is not gastrointestinal so wants me to see family doctor. Who I went to originally 6months & told me to go to the gi doctor. I feel so frustrated....
Hi how are you I also have some similarities After I had my gallbladder removed my stomach really got worse I’ve always had problems with it to begin with so when you say you lay down in bed do you have pain so do I have to sit up in bed until my sleeping medicine kicks in I have to Belch burp all day to keep the gas out of my stomach in my abdomen the gas spreads into my body down my neck because I have no other place to go if I don’t poop every day I can’t eat anything like you said once a day is all I can eat sometimes I poop so much it’s like you said you so so much better after though
It has no other place* sorry I’m talking into my phone it’s just easier but sometimes I don’t check to see if everything is correct LOL 😂
You mean by wind as gas same here I belch all day, I’m so bloated And I can’t fart so I belch is that your symptoms also is it similar
