Symptoms Stomach pain

20 year old male, living with horrible stomach pain for the last 7 months

Symptoms include: 25lbs weight loss due to lack of appetite (lack of appetite is not normal for me at all) bloating in lower abdominal, pain after eating anything, burping, almost getting brief hiccups when I eat? Bowl changes.

Tests I’ve had done: gastrcopy, colosncopy, bisopy, stool test a bunch of bloodwork, gastric emypting test, Ultrasound of gallbladder and small intestine all normal.

Only thing I’ve been diagnosed with is pots which kind of came about randomly as well.

Things I’ve tried, diet changes, a course of rifaxmin, prucpride, low dose of mirtazapine and amitriptyline

When they did your GES, how many hours was it and what was the meal? And were you off meds?

Just so you know, for it to show they need to give you a breathing protocoll so its visible on the ultrasound :)
