Hello doctor! Currently, I have epigastric abdominal pain intermittently, each episode is less than 1 minute and lasts for nearly 2 days and has not stopped, but the time between each attack gradually fades away. I also have loose stools.
In the past, I sometimes had stomach pain when I ate at the wrong time, sometimes I also had loose stools. At night, when I lie down to sleep, I feel a bit tight in the breastbone and full.
The doctor asked me if stomach pain is a sign of gastroesophageal reflux disease or colon disease? Looking forward to consulting your doctor help me. I would like to thank

Hello, Ms. The doctor would like to answer the question: "is stomach pain a sign of gastroesophageal reflux disease or colon disease" as follows:
According to the symptoms you described in the question, they are all signs of both stomach and colon diseases. However, to get the most accurate conclusion and give the right treatment, you should see a gastroenterologist at a reputable medical facility or one of the hospitals of Vinmec Health System nationwide to necessary counseling and testing.
Thank you for trusting and sending questions about Vinmec. Best regards!
