Gastroenterologist,  's  Response
yes, i suggest to look inton your investigations first, if they do not favour the panreatitis i.e. serum amylase and lipase level than get done upper gut endoscopy/ gastroscopy to r/o duodenal ulcer. because such a severe pain is not relared to gastritis alone. moreso ever you are having costipation and if it happed in past too than have some stool softner along with ppi and prokinetiks i.e.
tab RAZO-L once a day along with syp lactihep 20 ml hs.

all the best
