Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of stomach issues for over a year now, I have taken all types off tests, MRI s, had a colonoscopy, CT scans, everything comes back negative,
You have a persistent abdominal discomfort and if all the tests as you have mentioned are normal, this is indicative of thatyou are suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, IBS.
Get a proper treatment for IBS, continued till you are alright.
Avoid the situations that cause stress and/or anxiety as this is one major factor.
Make a list of foods and beverages that instigate or enhance your problems.
Stop such things altogether to get a complete relief.
Remember that if you get exposed to such factors you will have the problem again hence your treatment is basically preventive more than the curative one, please try to understand this.
