Hello dear,

As the investigations carried out have reported normal results, the Cardiovascular, Pancreatic pathologies & C.difficile as the causative agent of your symptoms can be ruled out.

Under such circumstances, the symptoms as mentioned in your post can be attributed to accumulation of gas secondary to increased acid production in the stomach.
An Ultrasound scan of Abdomen & upper GI endoscopy will be helpful in clinching the diagnosis.

Symptomatic relief can be obtained with intake of Pantoprazole+ Domperidone preparation (to be taken before meals) & antacid gel (to be taken after meals).
They prevent formation of excess acid in the stomach & provide symptomatic relief.

And it is also needed that you take certain precautions regarding your diet & lifestyle, such as:
1. Take soft, plain, non-spicy foods.
2. Drink lots of water to maintain adequate hydration.
3. Avoid fast foods & gas producing food products like cabbage, etc.
4. Avoid smoking & alcohol.
5. Keep away stress, think positive.

If symptoms still persist, kindly consult a Gastroenterologist for proper clinical examination.

There is no need to worry, you will be fine.
Wishing a good health.
Take care.
