painfull muscle spasms

ive been having severe muscle spasms in my upper stomach above my naval for about a month on and off, but now it is constant.
my bladder also spasms, and the spasms seem to spread to other parts of my body with twitches, including my head which causes me to feel very faint.
i have constant nausea,alot of gas and seem to belch alot, i also had acid reflux last july.
i have total loss of appetite, have lost over two stone in weight, get dizziness.
i also get like a burning feeling in my stomach on and off too.
i have diarriah on and off too and occasional constipation, when the spasm and pain is severe i feel freezing cold and get incredibly shakey (shaky).
i have tried various painkillers and buscopan and peppermint capsules all offering no relief.
please help i am very worried and am also constantly exhausted, any advice would be so much appreciated, i have been hospitalised 3 times with severe pain, and just given morphine, antibiotics and sent home,please help

Hi and welcome to the GERD froum.

U may want to try ginger instead of peppermint..sometimes pepermint has the opposite effect on those of us with acid reflux.The morphine and other meds may add to ur acid reflux issues.

U may have motility issues.....ask ur drs about this...it would explain ur IBS.....

there r meds like amitiza (sp) that can help, but it is an rx and u need a dr .

Have u had MRI's, or a colonoscopy ...what testing have u had? Have ur Gall Bladder checked and ask then to look for a hernia.

U have an underlying  condition.....and I am sorry that we can not offer u much help....we r here for support.

Keep us postedon ur progress
