Chronic Stomach Pain Please Help!

[anabelle1993]

I am a sixteen year old girl and i have been having stomach pain for about 7 months now. the pain is usually in the upper left side and radiates out. my symptoms are weight loss, severe constipation, headaches, bloating, gas, and loss of appetite. Ive had and endoscopy, colonoscopy, cat scan, xray, multiple blood tests, allergy tests, diabetes test, fructose intolerance test and the doctors haven found anything except lactose intolerance. I tried an IBS diet but that did nothing to alleviate my symptoms (it might have even made the worse especially the bloating). ive tried cutting out dairy and gluten from my diet and nothing works. The pain is so bad that ive had to miss 15% of school this year. please help me

i got tested for motility problem and everything is fine. not really sure if that is a good or bad thing because i still feel terrible. now the pain is specifically in my upper stomach and under my left rib. it is terrible under my left rib and i feel a popping and tons of pressure. i have also recently been tested for glucose intolerance and that came back negative also. does anyone have any idea what is wrong with me? i am losing weight like crazy because i have lost all desire to eat. i need help so badly

Thank you so much for your help

I read your story and it sounds like something I could have written about myself.  I am 17 and I have so many of the same symptoms you have.  My pain is in the left upper quadrant of my stomach, I have severe constipation, migraines, gas, and I'm lactose intolerant.  For me, the migraines were menstrual so being on a continuous birth control pill helped.  Have you had any motility tests?  For me, it turned out I had an intestinal motility disorder.  You could see if you could have any motility tests done to see if that could show anything.  I also have bad reflux and gastroparesis.  It has taken doctor two and a half years just to come up with these diagnoses and I haven't gotten much relief yet.  I hope some of the things that doctors have found that I have can help you.  Good luck.
