What Is The Cause Of Heating Sensation In Lower Abdomen And Back?
I have been experiencing a heating sensation in my lower abdomen and back. In march it will be a year that I have dealt with this issue. I had an EGD done and it was determined that I had Hpylori. I took the prev pack medications and it was determined that the Hpylori had cleared up, but I'm still dealing with this heating sensation or inflammation as well as gas. I have been to see two different Gastorenterologist and they told me that my blood work , stool samples, and CT of my abdomen/pelvis were all ok. I have tried carafate and a couple other meds, but no relief. I have asked about the possibility of it being chrons or celiac, but both said it would have showed up in my blood results. At this point I'm scared that my health is on the line and I don't want something to be hiding and have to suffer later.

Hi.
Thanks for an elucidate history. Gone through all.
Seen by 2 Gastroenterologists- undergone tests its results - medicines.....
The problem is heating sensation in lower abdomen and back.
I would suggest you you the following medicines after / with consultation with your Doctor after discussing your problems and findings.
I would advise you to go for an MRI of the lower spine.
Amitriptyline: start with lower doses and increase gradually. Or Gabapentin may help. You need a prescription for such medicines.
I hope this will help solve your problem as all the investigations done do not show any other positive findings as the heating sensation can occur in neurological problems too.
Please let us know about the effectiveness
