@joha, finding answers for GI symptoms can be challenging. You find from the posts in these related discussions that you're not alone:
- Not so sure it's IBS by @katiek78 https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/not-so-sure-its-ibs/
- Mystery abdominal pain by @lookingforanswers2022 https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mystery-abdominal-pain/

Do you find certain foods or activities help or trigger the symptoms? Do you track your symptoms and possible triggers?

Yes, Definitely! Spicy, and fatty foods as well as high fiber foods trigger symptoms. My consultant though prescribed me some fiber powder because of my constipation. As He seems not to cate too much about me and I'm throwing up practically everything I eat (I've lost about 19 kg) I'm moving on to a different specialist. I would like to come to mayo but I live in the UK...
After checking up what loriwho suggested it definitely seems like gastroparesis!

Try eating gluten free. It works for me.
