I have been diagnosed with SMA syndrome, also known as superior mesenteric artery syndrome. I suffer from severe abdo pain and back pain. I also vomit after many meals. I know that a gastric bypass surgery is an option for me, and this is what doctors seem to be suggesting, however I am a university student and only 18, therefore I'm not really in a position to be having surgery. I would also like to try some more conservative treatments. Does anybody know of anything that I can do in order to ease my symptoms? I have tried painkillers however the pain is too bad therefore they don't work. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.
Hannah.
