Functional dyspepsia

by bright862, Nov 27, 2007 12:58AM
Some 10 months ago, i had a "bad indigestion" that last for weeks. The gastroenterologist did endoscopy & there were no sign of reflux or ulcer. The doc.diagnosed as functional dyspepsia, he even ruled out H.Pylori. I was prescribed Ganaton & Famodine, to be taken before each meal. The problem is the medication does not work all the time..the feeling of early satiety afer a smal meal, bloating & belching makes me very uncomfortable & difficult to stay focus at work.
I wonder if this medication work for anyone of you or probably the medication is not right for me. Any suggestion to manage this disorder would be welcome.
p.s. During the last 10 months, the symtom comes & goes w/o any apparent reason. This is very frustrating.

I was recently diagnosed with dyspepsia also, just lazy gut my GI called it.  I also have colonic inertia so they are still running tests on gallbladder, etc.  I also get the feeling of satiety early, bloating.  In fact my husband calls my stomach a "chia pet" after I eat.  You can literally watch it grow.  I go from a size 4 to 8 on any given day.  My doctor just put me on domperidone, which is experimental and you can only take it for 3 weeks.  So far, nothing yet.  Have not heard of the meds that you are on.  Also, what is H. Pylori?  Do you also have severe back pain with stomach pain?  Is it worse at night?  LIke you my symptoms are not constant, but the belching is constant.  I have started eating little meals and snacking on crackers, etc. during the day.  No red meat, no bread, pizza, etc.  No bulky food and it seems better.  Guess it can digest just a little at a time.  Hope you get relief soon.  Any suggestions are also welcomed.
