Hi I'm a 13 years old boy and for the past few months I've been having general problems gastrointestinally. It started out with me just having a lack of appetite. Then school started and my appetite came back. Then after a while i started to have a lot of gas and i would belch a lot after eating. I went to see a doctor during the summer about it and he pressed on my stomach and told me to try and change my diet for a while. Nothing really changed. But anyway now I have had some abdominal pain. No specific area just all around. And when i do its pretty brief. I have also had some pain up my anus. My bowel movements seem normal, maybe just a little harder than normal but theres no bleeding as far as i can see. I'm kind of worried and I'm kind of embarrassed to talk to my family about it. Some thoughts on this would be appreciated.

You should consider parasites. Talk to your parasites about that and doing a stool sample at your doctor.

Not always, Ive read that they dont want to be exposed so they will try to bury themselves in your body. Thats the problem im dealing with right now. Most of my symptoms match up to parasites but I am not showing any signs in my stools or anything. Ive done 2 stool samples and the first one came up negative, hopefully this next one shows something. They are really hard to detect because there are so many different types and stool tests only check for about 5% of them
