Hi, I have suffered with stomach problems for approx 4
years the main symptoms are...Nausea, belching, and a dull
ache in the center of my stomach (about an inch from my
belly button)
i went for an ultrasound and it showed that I have
a "thickened wall" gallbladder and my doctor has refered me
to a surgeon (no gallstones where detected!)
im not sure weather its my gallbladder causing my stomach
problems or my stomach. As I dont have the typical gall
bladder symptoms (pain under right rib, radating to back
and shoulders)
i find my symptoms come on first thing in the morning and
then late evening after a meal.
For years my doc told me I had a ulcer and ive been on
allsorts of drugs but none of helped. I find my discomfort
comes on in waves. I can go a few days feeling great but
then my stomach problems can flur up again. I have been for
an endoscopy but they couldnt get the camera down my throat
as I was very nervous (even under sadation!!) I couldnt
even handle a barium meal as I began to gag when I
swallowed the barium (im emetaphobic...Which made this
worse!) :(
anybody suffer the same symptoms as me who can give me some
advise??
