Unidentified stomach problem,help please
Posted , 2 users are following.
Hello,I'm new here,and I need help in identifying my problem.I've searched the internet,but I have not found a disease that fits my simptoms.
I am currently unable to go to doctor's but will be soon,but I want to know what might be wrong and try some harmless methodes of curing,it might not be anything serious and I might heal on my own.I haven't been to doctror's more than a decade,I've always been healthy-until now.
OK I wil try to describe my problem as detailed as possible.
After every meal,I feel bloated in my stomach,and some dull pain is offten present.I am 100% sure that food is held in my stomach for much longer than it actually should.It seems that anything I eat is heavy on my stomach and it's making gurgling noises and feels like it's struggling to send food to lower digestive systems.I should aslo mention that I burp a lot,even after simply drinking a glass of water.These symptoms only started recently,and are now always present after meals.Before this however,sometimes,very rarely,I would wake up in the morning with dull,persistent stomach pain,that would last several hours,and in one case more than 12 hours,after which the pain gradually ceases,and what is important here is that during that time it seems that food just sits there in my stomach,and I can hear gurgling noises.This was triggered by eating just before bed,but in the past I was eating before bed offten and only rarely this would happen.Now the long-lasting pain in the morning is guaranteed if I eat right before I go to sleep.My apetite is severely lowered since this started,and all this started after a perticulary painful and long episode of that morning stomach pain.The type of food that I eat does not seem to play a role,although fat-rich foods do make symptoms a bit worse.Note that I do not ever feel nausea or even a slightest need to vomit.Today I haven't eaten anything,to see if things get better,maybe my stomach just needs a bit of rest,but I doubt it.One last thing that I should mention is that for the past few years I have developed a habit to eat less in the morning and more in the evening,and this might contributed to the troubles I have now.Please help,any insight would be much appreciated.

I went to doctor yesterday,I have an appointment for ultrasound scan in 20 days,20 days! I'll be skin and bones by then,I can't eat enough food to sustain normal weight...And the doctor didn't mention anything about what could it be,so she sent me to appoint check-ups for blood,stool and ultrasound.I am certain that ultrasound scan would shed some light on the matter,because I can almost feel that my problem is physical,it's not bacterial definitely...but again,20 days! Ugh and that's why I didn't go immediately,health institutions here where I live are terrible.So far nothing helps.It's like I'm eating rocks.If I eat small meals more frequently,they just seem to pile up in my stomach until there's enough to cause pain...and yet I never feel nausea.
Thank you Sexysimba for trying to help,I didn't disregarded that it might be low acid just yet,I will continue to read about this condition to see if some other methodes help.Maybe someone else will know,but I realise it's difficult to tell just by what I wrote...
