What Causes Abdominal Pain With Loose Stool After Eating?

Hi, for the past four months I have been experiencing intense abdominal pain every time I eat, and it usually starts a half hour after I eat and continues for about 45 minutes. It is usually followed by a very loose stole. The abdominal pain spreads over my entire stomach and is more intense if I move. Sometimes, the pain is enough for me to vomit. Last year I was both bulimic and anorexic, and I never got checked, so I feel like there may be damage in my stomach, but I m not sure. I also take a lot of medication for mental illness- Lithium, Neurontin, and Zoloft.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history intense abdominal pain every time you eat for 4 months - after half an hour of eating - loose stool - vomit - bulimic and anorexic - also take Lithium , Neurontin and Zoloft...
The most probable cause is surely in the stomach, duodenum and may be small intestines.
I would advise you the following:
Upper GI Endoscopy to start with.
Contrast enhanced CT scan
Tests of blood, urine and stool.
Clinical evaluation by a General Surgeon.
Medical management.
If fails, Surgery as may
be indicated on investigations.
