Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
Supraumbilical abdominal pains are usually gastric or gall bladder or pancreatic or proximal duodenal or splenic in origin. A normal CT scan (computerized tomography) and an ultrasonography (USG ) rules out a pancreatic, splenic or a gallbladder origin of symptoms. The Stomach and duodenum are difficult to evaluate on a CT or USG.
Sometimes, some abdominal wall lesions like a neurofibroma or a desmoid may also cause pain and be missed on a CT scan
With the associated symptoms of nausea and loss of appetite, gastroduodenal causes like a ulcer disease or a gastritis is more likely.
Hence, consult your gastroenterologist regarding the need for an endoscopy and medicines like proton pump inhibitors and prokinetics.
I hope I have answered your query. Please accept my answer if you have no further queries.

Hi and thanks for the follow up.
Gynecological problems like pelvic inflammatory disease can cause dull pain anywhere, ovarian problems may be felt around the navel and the uterine and cervical problems are felt below the navel.
Please start the treatment for gastritis and consult your gynecologist too.
