Suggest Treatment For Abdominal Pain And Loose Stools

Im concerned I may have serious problem with my pancreas -- 8 months of upper left abdomen pain that is right under my ribs but feels deep -- sometimes the pain is in the same area but in my flank. My stools sometimes are very light and seem marbled tan and cream colored - not every time. My urine is sometimes dark like weak tea. I ve had ct scan, (raised questions --stranding near pancreas); MRI was not remarkable. Genetic test for celiac was negative. H. Pylori positive. Pill cam showed nothing to note. One gastro doctor gave up--new doctor dismisses it as irritable bowel and put me on FODMAP diet. Three weeks and no change in pain. No medicines. I was treated with triple therapy for h. Pylori. Any suggestions?

Gastroenterologist 's  Response
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist.

It appear to be IBS only as MRI abdomen and Pillcam both were normal. So I will suggest you to take mild antispasmodic agent like drotavarine 80mg tab once in a day. It is available OTC

I hope I have answered your query and this will help you . Wish you a good health
