Bloating In Stomach, Cramps On Left Lower Side. Have RA, Schleromaderma Crest. What Kind Of Specialist Doctor Should I Meet?
My stomach is always bloated, stomach cramps on my left lower side all the time and all over when I eat. I have white strings in my stool. I had my ovaries looked at they are ok. I have RA and Schleromaderma crest. I have a low imune system due to meds for autoimune. What could it be and which Dr speciality should I see for it?

Hello
Thanks for the query
The bloating of the stomach is most likely due to the steroids you might be taking. Please follow these suggestions
1. Visit a gastroenterologist, you might have to be taken up for an endoscopy to rule out a gastric ulcer
2. Avoid smoking, alcohol, milk and milk products
3. Take tab esomeprazole 40mg twice daily before food.
4. Please do not ignore the condition, meet a gastro enterologist as soon as possible
I hope I was of help
Regards
