Doctors in the house, a colleague of mine has been in severe pain for quite a number of months. It started like an acute pain but was not frequent; perhaps two or three times in day when it started last two years (January,2018). Then, last year it frequency increased and he went to hospitals and the doctors could not diagnosed anything but he was given drugs and injections.
However, with the help of the drugs he could eat because the drug was subsidizing the pain. But on 15th of July, 2019 the pain went chronic and the drugs and injections were not effective to subsidize the pain.
Note also, due to the pain he was restricted to a few food like pasta, indomie, pap etc because any other would be impossible.
In addition, the pain is like a constant fire in the stomach and also coupled with frequent belching.
He has gone to different hospitals in different parts of the country to no avail.
Pls, house what could be the cause?
