Hey all I have been reading alot off people posts so I am currently going through some testing I had blood done twice looking at diffrenent stuff but came back all clear so that was fine but recently I have been suffering with more pain in my abdominal are it's in the center at the top then across the top down the left hand side .. I have really bad heartburn and sometime I can feel the acid in my esophagus area I am currently on 40mg off omprezomsoles and 60mg a day buscopan I go to the bathroom frequently I got more bloods done today there are checking my kidneys and liver again and sending my blood away for cmp and esr .. I am waiting for the hospital to get in contact with me for the camera to go down my throat and scans on my stomach area .. I have already had my gallbladder out aswell but thay was done a while back a good 8 years ago .. I sometimes suffer with chest pain well its not chest pain it's weird feeling .. at one point I thought I had agingina .. but the doctor says she is sure it's nothing to do with that ... just wondering if anyone is having anything similar ... I am a totally worrier aswell .

Could be anxiety. I get random chest pains that feel like it’s in the centre area and is a deep dull pain. Lasts for a little while but then goes.

40 m omeprozole is quite a high dose and this can have side effects. The endoscopy will check for ulcers and hernias etc. Make sure you ask them to take a sample for h pylori infection ( this is as common as mud lol)

What area are you in? I’m Colchester and they are still doing stuff there. Ask your doctor what your stool tests were for

You might want to check out BAM (Bile Acid Malabsorption), it can happen after having your gallbladder out. See link below:

Might be worth looking into.

All the best, Maureen.
