I'm 14 and since April (almost a year now) I've been having stomach burning in my upper abdomen and severe chronic nausea but no vomitting. It feels really uncomfortable to press down on my upper stomach. I've been to 3 doctors so far and even had one of them give up on me. The tests I had done so far was 3 endoscopes a CT scan, 2 Heida scans, a ultrasound, a 6 hour gastric emptying test and I think that's all of them. All came back normal. No medicine I try works for the nausea and or for my burning. One time when I went to the ER they gave me vikaten and that didn't even help. This has caused me to miss 17 days of school so far. I'm just so fed up they can't find anything wrong with me. I'm tired of all the nausea keeping me up all night, feeling like I'm gonna throw up when I'm deathly afraid of and I'm tired of the burning in my stomach. Nothing makes it better and eating sometimes makes it worse. I'm not allergic to any foods or anything like that. I take medicine for acid reflux an that's under control. I just don't know what else the doctors can even test for and I'm afraid they wot be able to ever find anything wrong. Is anyone suffering with this same problem? Or have any advice? I'm just tired of all this and it's messing up my life
To add: I've also been up and down with my weight 94-100. It hard for me to finish meals anymore because I get full fast and I start feeling nausea and the burning

Hello, I am suffering with similar problems and doctors don't know what it is. All my tests are normal too. I feel sick after anything I eat or drink even water makes me uncomfortable. I have constant burning and no medications help I also feel really full after eating or drinking anything I have lost lots of weight from this. I know how you are feeling. I too feel like its ruining my life. I'm 25 with three children. I don't know what it could be but I know it's hard to cope. No one really understands how we feel but don't give up keep going to doctors and ask for more tests it has to be something. Have they tested your stomach acid levels, or for an overgrowth of bacteria? These are the tests I'm asking for at the moment. Let us know how you get on. I wish you all the best.
