II about four weeks ago at a university hospital. I felt great last week (week 3) for the first time in 3-4 years. This week, my "stomach" feels like it is in a knot about an hour after I eat. It is a deep, gnawing pain going right to my spine. No nausea, though. I have had this pain for three days right in the center of my belly, directly under my xyphoid process. Levsin helps for a little while and then the pain returns when I eat again. I had an EGD a month before my ERCP and was told that my Nissan looked good. Manometry showed pressures
2) When can I expect to be symptom free? Will I be symptom free?
3) Is this something that I will have the rest of my life? If so, what can I do to keep it from affecting me so much? I have missed another three days of work because of pain that wakes me up at 0330 or so.
Thank you for taking the time to answer or give feedback.
