What Causes Nausea Along With Abdominal Pain And Back Pain?

Need some information from you
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome.
Thank you for writing to us.
I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. I need some more information from you, to better understand your situation.
-Why was a MRCP advised?
-Since when have you been experiencing these symptoms? Since after the surgery?
-Have other gastrointestinal conditions been ruled out?
-Have you tried any medications?
-Do you have other symptoms like:
+Regurgitation of food or fluids into the mouth
+Bitter taste in the mouth at times
+Sensation of something in the throat
+Heart burn or chest pain
+Dry cough
+Hoarseness or change in the voice
+Difficulty swallowing
and any other information you can provide me.
Although your doctors seem to be investigating an abnormality with the bile tract, your symptoms could be due to a gastrointestinal condition. So it would be wise to look into this system as well.
I look forward to hearing from you in order to help you further. Please do not hesitate to write to me about anything, I am always here to help.
Best wishes.


Symptoms point towards worsening/uncontrolled GERD
Detailed Answer:
Hello once again ma'am.
Thank you so much for that information ma'am, it really does help.
You should know that:
-Nausea
-Abdominal pain
-Back pain or pain radiating to the back from the abdomen
-Dry cough
-Bitter taste in the mouth
are all typical symptoms of GERD and are all quite sufficient to make and confirm a diagnosis of GERD.
As you have not experienced relief from most of the commonly used medications for GERD, if you were my patient I would prescribed a combination of medications like:
1. An antacid (eg. gelusil, tums, gaviscon, etc.)
2. Famotidine
3. Lansoprazole
4. Baclofen: which will not reduce your symptoms directly but will help control the poor functioning of your lower esophageal sphincter which is the main cause for the acid reflux
So in conclusion ma'am, I do not think you have anything often. If you were hoping to hear something on that level, I am sorry to inform you that your symptoms are simple and most probably due to the GERD. :)
I am more than happy to inform you this. The only trouble you are having is difficulty with responding to medications that help address GERD. In such patients surgery is advised, and so I would first request you to speak to your doctor about initiating the treatment regimen suggested by me, and if this fails you can consider surgery which should surely help improve your condition ma'am.
I hope you find my response helpful ma'am. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I would be more than happy to help you.
Best wishes.
