Could It Be My Pancreas?

Hi,

New to the forum here. Just need some advice as this just been worrying me. A little over a month ago I started experiencing heartburn, and nausea. I have constipation too, but I’ve always had it. I went to my local ER, they did an US of pancreas, gallbladder and liver (All was normal, but I know this isn’t the best image test!) and doc said I had acid reflux, so she put me on Omeprazole and Ranitidine. But over a month later I’m still having the heartburn, nausea and constipation. And it seems now that anytime I eat I feel nauseated. My bowels aren’t moving much either, and when I have a BM it’s light colored. I’ve also noticed I’m having little aches and pain in my back. Could it be something going on with my pancreas? I’m just terrified that it could be pancreatic cancer. Your opinions and advice would be much appreciated, thanks.

Also recently had an EGD done, and that came back normal as well.

    Try the amino acid Taurine, it got rid of heartburn that I had suffered for 20 years. You might not be making enough bile either, taurine increases bile as well.
