Well, first off, I have had this problem for years. It's a pain in my upper abdomen, in the middle right under my ribs. It feels like I'm constantly hungry. It doesn't get better or worse with food. It's not nausea or heartburn, I've been to the doctor, all my bloodwork is normal and I've had an endoscopy which showed no signs of acid problems. Actually, i feel like I did when I was pregnant. But I've been on birth control since then, and since I've ruled everything else out, I've been blaming it on hormones. After a few years, I switched to the lowest hormone dose of birth control available. It seemed to help a little, but that might have been mind over matter, cause once I get to my doctors office my medical problems temporarily go away, Haha. If someone knows something I'm missing, I would love to know what it is because I've had this annoyance for 5 years and I just don't want to be sick anymore. Thank you.
