What Causes Pain In The Upper Abdominal Area?

I had my gallbladder out back in January and ever since I have had these horrible pains in my upper stomach area. They are random so I have been tracking what I eat and the times that I have them but haven t been able to narrow it down to anything. Most commonly it wakes me up between 3 and 5 in the morning but am actually experiencing one right now. The doctor that did the surgery says it has nothing to do with it and has prescribed pantoprazole for it but it has made no difference. Some times I have gone several days without pain but then it is several more in agony. Any ideas what else this could be? I have been told by friends that this is common and I will have to deal with it for the rest of my life! Help!

Hello,

Because you are not having Gallbladder, so fat digestion is difficult without bile. So you are having reflux problems.

Try this medicine 1.tab.Pan D 1 bid before food 2.tab.Unisnzyme 1 bid 3.tab.Libarex 1 tid 4.Syrup.Sucralfate 10ml tid after food. Review after 15 days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
