Suggest Treatment For Terrible Upper Abdominal Pain
Hi, I am having terrible upper abdominal pain. My current MD is unable to diagnose the problem. I have had a lot lab work as well as CT scan and ultrasound. So far I have been told that everything is normal. But everything is not normal - no one seems to believe me or able to Diagnose the problem. I have pain everyday some days so bad that I cant work - that s a problem. I have a PMD as well as a GI doctor and still no answers. Any suggestions?

Hello and welcome.
I think that you should do endoscopy to diagnose it since CTscan will not be able to detect intraluminal pathology such as ulcer or polyp. Also,it may be caused by inflammatory bowel diseases and you need to see intervention gastroenterologist for further evaluation. Regards
