Hi, all. I posted a few times recently, and thank you to everyone who has responded! It's been so helpful. This time I'm writing about a new sypmtom. Late last night, I ate a small meal and about an hour later took my regular fiber supplement (capsule form). I went to bed and woke up about seven hours after eating with intense epigastric pain so severe...

I have little bumps that come and go on my hands, too, and they sound somewhat similar to what you have. I also have started to notice them on my feet now. Since I've also had a lot of disgestive issues lately (diagnosed currently as GERD and constipation and hemmerhoids/possible IBS but meds aren't helping), I'm going to ask for some bloodwork to be done...

I have an appointment with my GI doc coming up in a few weeks, so I will definitely ask about the specifics then! If...

Hi, I'm a 24 year old female in need of some advice. I have been diagnosed with GERD and possible IBS, but I'm wondering if I might actually have celiac disease? The GERD diagnosis is based on epigastric pain, nausea, occasional vomitting, and occasional pain while swallowing. I've had these symptoms for about six months now and am taking Prilosec twice a...

Hi, everyone. I'm a 24 year old female who has been diagnosed with GERD and possible IBS. For over a year, I've been experiencing bowel problems including chronic constipation, pain while passing stool, and stools that contain bright red blood and mucus. I sometimes have gas and bloating, and once in a while small pieces of my stool float in the toilet...
