The only possibility left seems to be irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). IBS is a functional disorder that manifests with: constipation, diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, gas, belching, heartburn, reflux, difficulty swallowing, an early feeling of fullness with eating, and nausea. Treatment of IBS is very complex and includes: Monitoring (identifying the factors that provoke the symptoms); Dietary modification (avoiding some types of food and increasing dietary fiber); Psychosocial therapies (stress-treatment); Drugs (anti-cholinergic drugs, antidepressants, anti-diarrhea drugs, anxiolitic drugs).
