When treating patients Are you a doctor ? I ' m straight up going to break my usually hard and fast rule about any sort of online diagnosis and pick your brain . I have this unresolved stomach issue that ' s been going on forever . Stomach pain is basically a non symptom for me at this point any time I have so much as a flu it will be sore when my brother was young any time he got sick he had neck pain , which doctors said was swelling glands . My usual stomach issue goes something like this I get a cramp , usually in the evening . I know shit is going to go down at this point . The pain gets steadily worse , and around this time I start vomiting regularly The pains can go on for anywhere from 8 hours to a week . Usually with constant overwhelming nausea . Sometimes I stick a finger down my throat to force myself to vomitretch which will make me feel better for 20 minshalf an hour . Episodes can be anywhere from days to months apart . I ' ve had several doctors in different countries try to figure me out . Blood tests , scopes in every orifice and even a CAT scan . Scope report is always the same possible malrotation of the gut . Other ruled out diagnosis include crohns and ulcerative colitis . Last potential cause is Chronic Vomiting Syndrome brought on by weed smoking . I ' m sceptical as my longest episode free period I was smoking a lot my episodes didn ' t go away when I went cold turkey and when I slowly started experimenting again they were no more frequent . I know my mental health and stress correlate with my episodes somewhat , but that ' s not reassuring when I ' m curled around the toilet bowl . I ' d love some other way to manage it other than don ' t be depressed .
