Acid reflux and ibs!
I was told I had these a few years ago after an endoscopy and sigmoidoscopy. I am worried about my stomach and bowels again now because I have loose bowels, nausea, no appetite, fatigue, feel full after a few mouthfuls and I can feel my face flush up after I have eaten and feel hot.When my ibs has flared up in the past I usually have pains and wind in my stomach and a tender stomach but I don't this time.
My gp has referred me to a gastroenterologist so I am worried its not just ibs and acid.

Also I am burping more after I eat and I am eating what I want and not gaining weight.

The first time I had an endoscopy they said I had an hiatus hernia but then when I had another a few years ago they said I didn't but had gastritis and ibs.

Re: Acid reflux and ibs!
the gastroenterologist will be able to advice alot better than the gp. You've had the diagnostic test that rules out anything really nasty but maybe they can advise some lifestyle changes that relieve some of the symptoms.
take care

I am concerned because its a few years since I had an endoscopy and these feel different symptoms now.
