Hello, I m a 41 yr old male. I ve had ulcers in my esophagus for a few yrs now with no major pain. But within the last two months I ve had diarrhea after every meal and it smells like sulfur. Not only that I get diarrhea but also get my left upper abdomen hurting really bad. My concentration level is low and I have a lot of mood swings. Memory loss is also present now.What am I going through?
