I had an ankle operation March this year a few days later I started feeling nauseous and burping also diarrhoea, I’ve been for the cameras all came back fine still nausea and burping. I have been given 3 different anti sick drugs the last one made me so agitated the doctor gave me a drug to calm it down also the nausea subsided the drugs used for anxiety, could it be possible I’m suffering from anxiety or depression I am going through the menopause, be great to hear anyone’s thoughts.

It does not sound to me that it would be related to the ankle surgery. Have you seen a gastroenterologist? I think that might be the next step if you haven't. Are you eating differently? Try to cut out alcohol, coffee, spicy food and junk food and eat a bland diet for a while and see if that helps. Otherwise, it could be anxiety as the GI tract is very sensitive to psychological concerns.

Might well be the start of menopause, your doc should be able to do blood tests to ascertain it.

Could you have IBS? I get diarrhea and. nausea with it. Also abd cramps. It does not show up on camera. I can’t do milk products or too much salad for sure. Stress can aggrevate it. Good luck my friend.
