Comes in spurts, but i can often tell it a day or 2 after I've had a bad emotional flare up. (And I've been through all the GI testing)

YES! I went to the doctor a few weeks ago for stomach issues. She ran some blood tests and I have an ultrasound this week. I personally think its stress from the situation with anxiety because it comes and goes. However, its not like a normal stomach ache for me and it is happening almost everyday. I think just need to rule out what it is NOT and then try and work on relaxation. I found that when I relax it does get better... especially when I take my anti anxiety med (xanax as needed). This is a very stressful time.. a pharmacist friend of mine told me that pepcid and products like that are selling like crazy right now. I just want to get this managed and know that I will feel better.

I’ve been having a lot of side pain where my left ribs generally are, also have a lot of gas when I eat or drink things. Have had multiple blood tests done and testing and so far I’m Good across the board. I’ve been having really bad anxiety and even panic attacks recently. I don’t really understand why but I’m going to do some more testing with a CT abdomen scan. I really can’t tell if somethings wrong or this is purely my anxiety making things happen.
