Upper abdominal pain only after eating.
-
Hello, I have been having unexplained upper abdominal pain for the past month, only when I eat. It has become severe pain anytime I eat a meal. I haven't really eaten much for the past few days because it hurts so bad afterward. My CT scan or blood work is normal. So what could this be? The pain is so severe it makes me not even want to eat anymore.
