Stomache pain

I have had hep c for about 6 years and i have noticed in the last two years or so that when i eat certain foods such as avarcardo or raw mushrooms that i get really bad stomache aches. I have been to a doctor about this and have had scans for ulcers which i do not have, liver ultra sounds and thankfully i have not developed any scarring yet and many other test to find out what is causing this pain. I have just started to go to a specialist (gastrointoligist) and still have not got the answers that i would like.

" liver ultra sounds and thankfully i have not developed any scarring yet"

An ultrasound cannot tell you if you have scarring....only a liver biopsy can.

I have had problems with certain fatty foods, incl. avocados and many pasteurized dairy products especially milk. I feel sick,  very nauseous, but I don't get stomach aches.
