    Have your bowel habits changed?  What has your doctor suggested?

      The doctor hasn't suggested anything I was on omeprazole but they don't help anything.sometimes they are watery stools and most of the time the time there solid long and smooth 🙈.

      Sounds like IBS.  I get the same types of shifting stomach pain and bowel habit change.  I was diagnosed with IBS. Ask for tests.

    A lot of things could be causing your symptoms tell us more details from what you have said it sounds like ibs and nothing serious since the pain is not in one spot

      Your chances of cancer are very low as the most common symptoms are weight loss pain in one spot. In abdomen most probable health conditions you could have are harmless. The only thing I can do is guess. I think you should go to a gastroenterologist to rule out anything serious like cancer. I have similar symptoms to your and so far I had the some tests you had

    Doesn't sound like anything with your pancreas since those pains are VERY painful.

    Doesn't sound like an ulcer since most ulcer pains are a burning sensation.

    You're not complaining about heartburn so that should eliminate acid reflux

    Very low chance it has anything to do with cancer.

    I doubt it's IBS, your loose stools are more than likely a symptom of the PPI or stress.

    It could be just some mild gastritis.  Does your pain happen after eating? Particularly fatty foods? If the PPI isn't helping, I would recommend stopping it.  Maybe consider getting tested for h-pylori.
