Need advice with all my symptoms. I have been to 5 ER's, 2 ct scans, 1 mri, endo and colonoscopy, ultrasound so far for my abdominal pain. Also had many blood tests. Here are my symptoms for the past 6 months that just get worse with time

Sever bloating all day, stomach sticks out, not able to pass gas, feels like i have to have a bowel movement even after having one. I sleep fine, but as soon as i wake up and have bowel movement, im in horrible pain all day till i go to sleep. Pain in left side of abdomin. Its deep pain. Barely can pee, it burns after peeing and i dont have UTI.

The blood tests i had were for Lyme (neg), celiac desease (neg), STD's (neg), antinuclear antibody (positive), Think blood test (positive).

The Ct scan found fatty tissue on my colon, with swollen lymph nodes. Lesion on my liver and 3 lesions on my spine. Were not cancerous as of now. The scan i had later showed none grew it size. The endoscopy only showed a raw stomach so doubled my prilosec mg. The colonoscopy found nothing.

But with all this, i get prescribed meds for IBS. Is this IBS? im in horrible pain all day with the bloating.

I would like to add this has given me bad anxiety.

Please help.

It seems like a lot of people are having bloated stomachs. I went to the Mayo Clinic in Sept. And my stomach was normal now it's swollen in the front and all around the sides and upper of my belly button. When l saw the vascular medicine doctor he was concern and he was surprised l hardened been seen regularly for the shunt s in my liver. My stomach hurts and l thought it maybe a kidney stone l have had since 2014 and none of the doctors here are concerned. When l go to pee it's a little and it smells. I thought it was probably a uti but l fired my general practice doctor. Then l was looking about non chirrosis hyperammonia. And it talks about those symptoms so does autoimmune encephalitis since l have a high Ana. When l saw the neurologist at the Mayo Clinic she said l don't have autoimmune encephalitis disease but they say if a doctor is not trained they won't know what test to do. Colleen was telling me about test l should ask the doctors to run but l don't trust the doctors here because in my chart it says l have mental issues and that is the symptoms of both being mistaken for mental illness. So what's a person to.do. My general practice doctor referred me to the liver clinic but l don't trust his referrals. So l got a call today from the gasterentogist clinic where my favorite gasterentogist worked so l think l will go there and l am definitely going back to the Mayo Clinic for my consultation. I don't know if my constipation is part of it because l only take lactulose once a day. So.its so sad when you have to do the doctors work and he gets paid for doing absolutely nothing.
