I think I may have finally cracked it?
I think I have a functional GI Disorder which is basically GI problems which have no medical cause but which are caused by anxiety and other mental health issues.
This may go a long way in explaining why all my blood tests and my barium x-ray have all come back normal.
In other words my anxiety and nervous disposition may be causing my retching and dry heaving which is mimicking a gastrointestinal disease.
Oh well I see my gastroenterologist in 36 hours and I will be mentioning this.
Lets see if he agrees.
This retching has been going on now for 47 months so I highly doubt that there is anything wrong "down there" in my GI tract otherwise I would have deteriorated and become seriously ill after such a long period.
