What Causes Abdominal Cramps, Diarrhea And Loss Of Appetite?

Good evening, My daughter is 25 and has been experiencing stomach issues for a couple of years, she has been put on nexium, zofran, etc she has lost 9 pounds in three weeks without trying, she has stomach pressure and sometimes cramping, she has diarrhea most of the time, she really has no appetite as everything she eats makes her feel sick. She has been to our PCP she has had ultrasounds of her gallbladder, a hydascan for her gallbladder but it does not seem to be improving. She went to urgent care tonight as she was in a lot of discomfort and they sent her home with zofran and nexuium. I am trying to get her into a gastro but everyone I call says they are three to four months out.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

* The abdominal cramps with diarrhea and loss of appetite, since a long time does not narrate normal condition.
* In our clinic, I recommend a systemic approach of case evaluation with history, physical examination, basic lab tests, upper and lower GI endoscopy for the final diagnosis and further management.

Hope I have answered your query.
