Symptoms Patients experiencing<unk>  likely report one, a combination of, or all of the following symptoms: * upper abdominal pain or discomfort * bloating * early satiety * postprandial fullness * nausea with or without vomiting * anorexia * regurgitation * belching Signs There may be abdominal tenderness, but this finding is nonspecific and is not required to make a diagnosis. However, there are physical exam signs that may point to a different diagnosis and underlying cause for a patient's reported discomfort. A positive Carnett sign (focal tenderness that increases with abdominal wall contraction and palpation) suggests an etiology involving the abdominal wall musculature. Cutaneous dermatomal distribution of pain may suggest a thoracic polyradiculopathy. Tenderness to palpation over the right upper quadrant, or Murphy's sign, may suggest cholecystitis or gallbladder inflammation. Alarm symptoms Also known as Alarm features, alert features, red flags, or warning signs in gastrointestinal (GI) literature. Alarm features are thought to be associated with serious gastroenterologic disease and include: * chronic gastrointestinal bleeding * progressive unintentional weight loss * progressive difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) * persistent vomiting * iron deficiency anemia * epigastric mass
