Hi,
It is understandable to be concerned.
It would be best to be assessed by a gastroenterologist or general surgeon to determine the source of your symptoms. In addition to physical examination, imaging of the abdomen and blood tests would be needed.
With a history of fatigue, the blood tests would include a complete blood count, ESR (checks for inflammation) and thyroid function tests.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
