Bloodwork, endoscopy, ultrasound all negative for a reason. Having a breath test in November to measure overabundance of bacteria in "gut". Have been prescribed up to 4 zofran a day but it is constipating which is a problem I already have. I think constipation plays a role and because I have no appetite, I can't tolerate foods I unsed to love like vegetables and whole grains. Motility specialist has put in an order for a nutrition consult in the next two weeks. I have been trying to eat more and frequently. I do use Benefiber but all the other "fibers and softeners make me sick" so I have to go with suppositories and "the bag" to get things moving. Can't believe I am talking about this. Ginger does make me feel better and lorazepam takes the anxiety off the worry. I am off gabapentin and ropinirole and I am cutting back the medrol I believe it will take a while until those medications are out of my system. I thought the original classic relief band was discontinued but I will look at Amazon again to see. Thank you for your fine report, I appreciate it.

@tarmansbks ,
Do you think discontinuing gabapentin or other meds could be a cause? Have you discussed this possibility with your PCP?
Please let us know about the results of upcoming tests. Hang in there!
