Cant eat, stomach pain

I have been unable to eat now for almost 2 weeks, I can eat dry toast and Gatorade thats about it, I can eat very little rice, and maybe a piece of boiled chicken..  anything else I get very bad pains in my stomach and diarrhea, I have had tests run at my doctors office and they told me all test, (urine & blood) have come back normal BUT I still have the problem.. is there something else my doctor should be testing me for? I do have a stomach ulcer but, that has not been bothering me, I think... would this be a related issue? I am at my whit's end....

Sounds like gastritis.Your stomach is not churning so the undigested food is getting to the colon.I had the same problem after 2 yrs use of NSAIDS.

Eliminate spices and caffeine COMPLETELY.

Ginger slices with some salt may help combatting the swelling.

I was on toast/soup for 8 months!!!
