Stomach Problems

[lola87]

I have a lot of stress and anxiety in my life.   The stress got really bad a few months ago.  I ended up in the ER with burning in my upper back and shoulders pain.   They told me I pulled a muscle and sent me home.  Two days later I started having the same burning in my stomach.  It has been 3 weeks of non-stop gassy, burning stomach aches and I finally went to the doctors.  They are doing blood tests and Upper Gi.  If they come back negative she said I probably have IBS.  She said anxiety and stress can cause all of this stomach pain.   Has anyone ever heard of this????

I had my Upper GI and it says that my lower eshogaul sphincter did not open as fast as it should.   Possible aschlasia.   I don't have trouble swallowing so why would they think this.  Now I need an endoscopy.   I started to take Priolsec and it is starting to get better.   Are they making too much of this???

Yes I have and I also had the same test and my upper gi was also nagative! Try and relax about it which is easier said than done but being that u have had test and doctors said no problem it may just be anxiety I lost a lot of weight worrying in R weeks I lost over 20 lbs n every test came back negative and had 2nd opinions and they too were negative! Hope this helps! T
