Stomach Issues

[kar4242]

What would cause your stomach to make noises after eating, make you have an upset stomach and loose stools?

I went to gastro dr. and had endoscopy and colonoscopy.  Endo results are as follows:

1.  Diagnosis - Antrum: Mild Chronic Inflammation of the Gastric Antrum.  There is a mild chronic inflammation of the antral lamina propria.  Immunohistochemical stain for H.pylori is negative.
2.  Diagnosis - Body:  Mild chronic inflammation of the gastric body-type mucosa.  There is minimal to mild chronic inflammation of gastric body-type mucosa.  Immunohistochemical stain for H.pylori is negative.
3.  Diagnosis - EG Junction:  Esophagogastric mucosa showing mild chronic inflammation.  No intestinal metaplasia identified by AB/PAS stain.  No yeast or fungi are see on AB/PAS stain.

I was told I have gastritis and acid reflux.  Was given meds that made me sick. Trying Prilosec and after 2 days it's not helping.  I have a constant upset stomach and it feels like there is something in my throat. I guess I have chronic gastritis.  Is it curable, what does this all mean and how can I help myself get better? I've cut out a lot of foods and I have a sugar issue - was not diagnosed with diabetes but prediabetes. I

Thanks.

Hi there,
The common causes of hyperactive bowel sounds along with upset stomach and loose stools are food intolerance, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn’s disease, diarrhea, food allergy, infectious enteritis, ulcerative colitis etc. Most over-the-counter antacids help in soothing a sour stomach and heartburn that may accompany stomach noise. It is important to visit your physician for a thorough physical examination. Depending on the results, diagnostic testing endoscopy, colonoscopy, etc. may be done. Do keep me posted.
Best luck and kind regards!
