Thanks for your response. And yeah I’ve been seeing gastroenterologists since I was eleven years old. I’ve been having pain specially on the upper part of the stomach, nausea (that sometimes are very intense) and constipation. The Prilosec help me sometimes with my symptoms.

Hello @miliangy

I'm glad to hear that you have been seeing a gastroenterologist. I agree with many of the other posts that suggest also seeing an endocrinologist. This type of specialist looks at hormone-related problems and this might be part of your situation as well. Looking into MEN1 should be suggested to an endocrinologist.

You mentioned having endoscopies, but I'm wondering what other diagnostic tests you may have had, such as MRIs, etc.

Since these problems started at a young age, this would be a good time to develop a working relationship with an endocrinologist who may be able to put some of these puzzle pieces together for a diagnosis. Endocrinologists have been described as the IT physicians of the body. They are just brilliant. I hope you can see one in the near future.

Are you using something for constipation? You might ask about using Miralax or some other stool softening product.

I look forward to hearing how you are doing. Will you post again?
