Left shoulder pain after eating or drinking

I have stomach ache right under my right rib cage after eating. I also get swelling of sternum and aches. It is kind of dull pain.This is going on since December of 2011. I had colonoscopy, cat scan, ultra sound, X-rays but they don't find anything. I wake up every night around 3 or 4 am. with gas and can't go to sleep. Also, I have a left shoulder pain and it gets worst when I have stomach ache. Some time I think they may be connected. Some nerve that flares up and passes through digestive system and neck or shoulder. Anyone one suggest something. I had H Pylori in 2001 and most recently October 2021.

Have you had an endoscopy? Perhaps it is is a hiatal hernia?

Hello @wshaikh22 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Connect has several members post about this type of pain. I would like to invite @petuniamom567 to share her experience with you. If you read her post, (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/665850/), you will see that she saw a specific type of GI doctor who is a digestive specialist who specialized in motility disorders.

You mention that you have had H Pylori twice. Was this diagnosed when you had an upper endoscopy?
