Nausea and Pain below V in Chest

[GregJA]

Random bouts of extreme Nausea?
Hey everyone.
Heres a short backstory.
Basically my entire life I have always felt in some way or another sick. Whether it be a mild nausea all day, abdominal pains, and constant low energy, you name it. About 5 years back it became worse. I would get very nauseous and the pains would worsen. I was treated for anxiety/depression (did not help), I was prescribed stomach ulcer pills, did not help. I went for various blood tests, various psychiatrists, I went for a barium test, an ultrasound, all showing no signs of anything,

But now more recently (every week to two weeks now) I will wake up feeling sick (pain below the v - in my chest, nauseous a little, tired, you name it) and then out of no where i will go numb, heat up, become very nauseous and hold back from gagging. and now it is always happening when im driving or out at work. Now after an hour or so the gagging/heat dissapears and I feel extremly crummy for 3-4 days afterwards as my body slowly recoups. I never feel like eating during that time period, i usually then get sore body, headaches and fatigue.

I went back to a different doctor and was told there was no explanation. that was it...

I am beginning to think it could be celiac disease, my dad has it, but he says the suffering im going through doesnt sound like it could be (it didnt stunt my growth, I do have a hard time gaining weight though, but I believe thats because i never feel like eating)

If anyone has ideas let me know id really appreciate it!

Interesting!  Well good that they are finding stuff.  Did you have an EGD and a colonoscopy yet?

I just got my results back and I have an ulcer and today, I found I have constant Gastritis (see my post).

Hope you get well soon!  Meantime for me, kefir, aloe, soft foods.

hey thanks!

I have actually been tested for stomach ulcer and they said that it was not that.
I have tried aloe vera juice as well as cod liver to no avail... :(
they now believe though I may have a slight liver issue causing all these problems!

I had somewhat something like this for the past 2 weeks.  I've also always been low energy as well.

My primary doctor was wonderful, sent me off to a great GI specialist, turns out I have an ulcer, which you might have.

One thing you should do right this minute is to get aloe vera juice, an aloe stomach formula if you have that in your country, and definitely KEFIR.  Immediately.

And definitely see a GI doctor, get an upper and lower GI for sure.  Hope this helps.

I am not a doctor or in the medical field.
