<human>: Hello, Firstly I would like to say I have been in and out of seeing my doctor and having testing done. In 2008 I had my gallbladder removed. Afterwards, I still had to watch what foods I ate. I am also lactose intolerant after I had my daughter in 1995. In the past six months approximately when I was caring for my inlaws....they eat a very high protein and fibre diet....after a week with them I then developed IBS symtoms and was not able to go to the toilet for days. And my stomach had a dull ache all the time and was beginning to get phantom pains where my gall bladder was. This is the scary part: my rib cage is curled upwards from the swelling in my stomach that will not go down for the past week. I try and watch my acid intake as my gp said I will have to watch my ph balance in my stomach. Which he is right...the more acidic foods I eat the worse the swelling gets. I have had the cameras up and down and the only thing they could find is that I have the beginning stages of getting ulcers in my stomach and to follow a FODMAP diet (which doesn t work). I take atenenol 25mg daily for high blood pressure and mitral valve prolapse, I was taking nexium but it stopped working and I find more comfort in a digestive tea that has calendula in it. I am constantly nauseated and cannot eat properly without severe bloating, gas, cramps, headaches, vomiting sometimes (nothing of black or dark discoloration in my vomit) same with when I go to the toilet as well. I am almost considering going to spend the six to 12 hours in the emergency room just so I can get some answers. I am afraid it is something way more severe than what they are telling me. Can you please try to help me. Thank you
<bot>: HIT hank for asking to ChatDoctorYou really seems to have multiple medical conditions, and you became too much conscious and so why you are having different thoughts about that, nothing is serious here, I suggest you to follow the medical instruction must have been given to you, keep your stress level low, It does not look any big problems even after many medical conditions, if you go on thinking weird then it may be possible that you could possibly face some functional conditions, so just take it easy, and have nice day.
