      Did you get an ultrasound of your stomach? Have you done food allergy/intolerance testing? Do you smoke or drink alcohol? they can have a big effect on you stomach.

      well done on losing all that weight! Sugar can have a big impact on stomach pain and gas, I try and avoid it although sometimes I find it can be hidden in pasta sauces or ready meals. Dairy can make your stomach a bit funny too. Low GI is a good way to eat. Have you tried taking antacids and ranitidine?

    Yes! I've had all the symptoms you described at one time or another. Currently I have the stomach issues. Both sides of my stomach feel crampy on and off throughout the day, gassy and bloated too. Been like this for 3 months. I actually have an endoscopy scheduled for Jan 2nd, but I'm curious if it's all just anxiety related. I've also been experiencing generalized itching on my neck/hands/arms for the past few months.

    All of these symptoms come usually with aging but you can try simethicone anti-gas tablets available over the counter.
