Abnominal pain
Hello, my name is Jay. I have been some pain near my stomach. The area in which I see the most swelling is like between the middile of my rib cage. My stomach swells up so bad and the pain is so strong that i have to lay down. this happens every time I eat something, or drink anything. I have had two endoscopies and one colonoscopy. and no one knows whats going on. Please help me?

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
What you have is probably ‘a bulge between the umbilicus and the lower end of breast bone’. This can be an epigastric hernia, as the bulge becomes more prominent after eating. The stomach or intestine bulge out through a weakening in the muscle wall. Please get a surgeon to examine this. Meanwhile do not lift anything heavy or push hard.
Another thing to be studied is H pylori infection. This can be detected by carbon urea breath test.
Please consult your PCP for primary examination followed by proper referral.
Take care!
