Is it IBS or Gastritis?

Posted by jadillow @jadillow, Sep 6, 2019

Hello all. I have had a hyda scan done as well as a scope months ago and they said I had a very small high hernia. Fast forward to two night ago while in bed I had a pencil stabbing like dull pain in left side below right pectoral/upper abdomen. It lasted the next day and was tender to the touch. The next night if moved to the left side breifly. Yesterday it started in left and then around stomach area. Comes and goes but is still there. Happens with movement and can feel if you push the area. Feels like a stabbing in that particular spot. My doctor seems to think all is well for now but wanted another opinion from maybe someone who has had similar or any recommendations. Thanks in advance guys.

So how can you tell the difference between reflux or a heart palpitation?

@jadillow I have a similar pain occasionally. I have always believed it to be an esophageal spasm.

Pain comes on quickly on my right side near sternum. When pain subsides there is still tender spot.

I generally don’t have pain as opposed to a feeling of fluttering. Does this happen? Also at times feeling of throwing up when I burp
