Q: Stomach pain every morning

I have lower abdomen pain (lower front left area) every single morning. It pretty much hurts every morning without fail. The pain varies though from annoying to extremely painful (feel like I'll throw up). Food does seem to relieve the pain. I know this is a sign of ulcers.

However I have been to the doctor NUMEROUS times for all sorts of tests. I've even had a endoscopy done (whatever it's called where they stick a tube down your throat - extremely uncomfortable.) They took two samples for testing and looked around. Checked for several things including Pylori. Nothing came up positive. They did not see any ulcers. The only noted thing was a possible opening between my stomach and esophagus. (not sure what the term was) I was put on Prilosec (spel?) which actually did help the heartburn (which used to be horrible) and I haven't had any issues there.

But this constant stomach pain every morning is extremely hard to deal with. Btw, the only other thing I can think of is it SEEMS like when I don't get plenty of rest or if I wake up very early in the morning it is worse than if I had slept longer or don't wake up as early.

I truly appreciate your comments and any assistance in this area. I'm here to respond if you have any questions. Thank you,

My teenage son has had very similar symptoms for years. Finally, someone clued us in that it might be mold. We took everything out of his room and did a thorough cleaning, with extra attention to his window, where condensation had caused some mold to grow around the edges, then we re-caulked the edges of the frame. Since then, he has not had a recurrence of these pains. What a relief, especially since his doctors were not able to find anything wrong with him, and therefore were not able to help him.

Early A.M. Stomach pain

I have had this problem my whole life, like the original poster, I have had upper and lower endocopies as well as small bowel capsule test(where they make you swallow a camera and it records its voyage) I have had H pylorri tests as well. THe results came up negative for celiacs, ulcers, or anything useful. All the can tell me is that there are signs of irritations in your small bowel, and that it appears that there are small tears that have appear and heal. They also put my on prilosec,protonix,reglan, etc... it was a ridiculous amount of medication.

The conculsion is that every morning I wake up just like you in serious pain, it has come to the point that I am depressed because the whole morning I spend in pain, without a full nights rest. I can get vicodin and valuum but then I get no work done. My doctor prescribed marijuana but it just like vicodin only masks the symptoms. However it does release tension in my guts and sometime i can get back to sleep. but once again, I am on drugs for something doctors cant figure out. It is very painful, and I hope we can find something to cure this obstruction in nour lives.
