Stomach, Ulcers, Gastric Bypass Forum - Second opinions for stomach , groin , and testicular pain

You can ask for a second opinion whenever you want.

Nausea and upset stomach especially after eating could indicate a stomach disorder like gastritis or a peptic ulcer. You need to have a Helicobacter pillory serology and even gastroscopy, if necessary. You may want to consult an internist about this.

You didn’t describe your sexual problems but if we assume impotency you can request several examinations to exclude organic impotency: clinical examination, blood analyses (blood count, sedimentation, hemoglobin, CRP, hormones (FSH, LH, testosterone, thyroxin, and prolactin), PSA, liver status, kidney status…), prostate examination with manual rectal examination, etc. You should stop taking any more alcohol. You may want to consult a urologist about this.

If the back pain is not due to a kidney disorder it could be due to a spine disorder: pinched spinal nerves, spinal disk degeneration, etc.

Hypochondria is a type of neurotic disorder where the patient thinks that he is ill even if there isn’t any real organic disorder. All the possible organic disorders should be excluded first before blaming hypochondria for all your symptoms.

A laxative can’t relief your abdominal pain. Certain laxatives can even provoke abdominal cramps. You may want to take a spasmolitic drug for the abdominal pain.
