My abdominal pain which is high up spikes 6-8 x a days and can last for a couple of hours each time. Virtually all the time. I have lost 28lbs because I don’t have an appetite mostly and now only eat very small portions of food. I have found hardly any food that makes it worse on better. I stay away from spicy foods. I have had this problem for about 21 months. I have mostly regular Bowel movements.

@lgumerman -
I understand how you feel- I have lived like that for a few months this year, also losing weight.
Before you contacted Mayo did you have tests done locally- such as endoscopy, ultrasound,CT or MRI?
