Hey, I’m a 20 year old college student who has been struggling with a weird stomach condition for two years. I wake up in the morning with a dry taste in my mouth and my stomach making embarrassing noises. I have went to the doctors numerous times and been prescribed medications such as pepsin for acid reflux, but they don’t work a single bit. After I eat my breakfast in the morning, I feel bloated and my stomach starts to make weird noises again. If I sit down my stomach feels compacted and again makes embarrassing noises. This has forced me to take only online college courses. After I use the restroom, my stomach feels completely empty and makes irritating sounds. It’s as if my stomach hasn’t digested any nutrients from the food I eat! I’ve tried many digestive enzymes as well and they’ve not helped the situation. This stomach condition is starting to effect my personal life, as I avoid hanging around people because of the stomach noises and sour taste in my mouth. I’ve seen so many doctors and they’ve completely overlooked the aspects of digestion and assigned me acid reflux medications. I honestly have felt hopeless with this medical condition. I would be more than grateful to receive medical suggestions about this condition I have. Thank you.

Since you have consulted several Doctors with no avail, I would recommend to proceed with more in-depth investigation. I would recommend you consult with a gastroenterologist for an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy which would allow a visual inspection of your gastrointestinal tract.
