Watch this 
View More Posts Ignore
A year ago i started with this upper stomach pain just under the left breast...
THinking it might be cancer had it checked out i have had MRI"S CAT scans, body scans, scope, blood work up, lower GI, upper GI and Colonospic done nothing has showed up.

I don't have it all the time but when i have it, it hurts really bad...


So i asked my heart doc about it he did alot of testing on my heart and all came back just fine and still it acts up from time to time,

Anyone else have this kind of thing happen to them?

" I had your problem. I did every test in the book and all came out normal, but the pain was still there. I was sent to the University of North Carolina's GI center and was diagnosed with functional dyspepsia. It is a brain gut disorder where the two of them essentially do not communicate well. It started out slowly for me, but then it became that i was in pain every day. Do you ever have problems after eating? "

" I guess this is silly posting so late on this but hey why not. Have they checked you again? Pancreatitis sometimes is a tough thing to catch on tests depending, also fatty liver. Oh another thing (costochondritis) can be pretty darn painful too. Well, I hope you are doing ok.
Goodluck "

" thanks everyone for your replies is an old post. I go on the 7th to get checked for the hernia and will also mention FUNCTIONAL DYSPEPSIA, COSTOCHONDRITIS to him and see what he thinks. I will be getting a scope once again in a few weeks to see if stomach uclers (which we had done already)...it don't seem to hurt after i eat at all. I do have acid reflux however. "
