Suggest Remedy For Constant Stomach Cramps With Abdominal Pain
hi recently I have been having bad stomach problems in my lower right abdominal and it spread to my left. this has been occurring for one year now and doctors and specialist have not been able to find out what is going on. I recently went to a stomach doctor and took 2 blood tests which came back normal and have done stool and a mri test and everything has been coming back perfect. it is a guarding pain meaning that my stomach is cramping all the time causing discomfort and annoyance. also I have been very gasy. what should I do now and do you have any idea as to what it is
Based on your description,I presume that all necessary tests have been done. I presume that stool for giardia is negative. I also presume that H.pylori stool test or Urea breath test is also negative . And as you have mentioned blood tests,I also presume that tests for coeliac disease are negative as well. Do you have any other symptoms such as constipation/diarrhea/weight loss/nausea/vomiting etc. Assuming that all investigations are negative, one of the possibilities is Irritable bowel syndrome. Another possibility is that of certain food allergies . Do you feel discomfort after consuming certain types of food? You may maintain a food diary and record the food types that you consume and note down your episodes of pain. How about your general health? How is your weight and general fitness ? I presume that Complete blood count, Liver function tests etc are also ok as you have said. In a nutshell,my advice would be to maintain a food diary and note down the episodes of pain to find out any specific food intolerance or allergies say for example to milk/soy/eggs etc. I would require some more information from your side to suggest further advice.. Should you require further assistance, please feel free to post more information here. Best regards
