Hey, have you been tested for any food intolerances or ibs? As pain after eating can be caused by one of these.

Hey, yes I have. Nothing showed up. I followed different diets as well cutting out certain food and that didn’t help either :(

I often get pain after eating - I’ve found having smaller meals and eating more often instead helps me. Might be worth trying if you haven’t already? Alcohol and dairy also set off pain for me.

Oh! And I’m assuming your GP has checked for all the obvious non-endo stuff?! I don’t know what those might be, but basically, problems with the stomach and intestines themselves - ulcers or whatever...

Hi Olivia, I have endo on my bowels, and I get pain when I have to open my bowels, and sometimes also when eating. So I guess that could be an explanation.. But could also be something else like reflux or something?
