Default the pain persists...

Hey guys, I am still hanging around..
I just wanted to revive this thread, in case anyone else has info they would like to ad.
It seems that I should have a procedure to look inside my stomach-but do I need a gastroenterologist referral to book this? If I do, that will take nearly a year.
The razor blade feeling still persists. I wonder if this is gluten related, or gastroperesis?
I can't eat a lot at once or else I get very bloated. But that doesn't explain the pain.
All I can do is take pain meds. Perhaps its time to try an anti depressant again. I do have a prescription for zoloft. My doc says it is the most studied ssri and has the best results.
I am hesitant, because I have tried SO many-and they make me quite I'll or don't work at all.
I have a personality disorder, and I think that complicates things.
I also wonder if it is safe to take with lyrica, and narcotics.
It would just be masking the problem as well.
I don't have any upcoming appointments, so I'm feeling discouraged. I find a heating pad is helpful, but not always convenient.
Maybe I will try my marshmallow root capsules again-to sooth mucus membranes.
Any advice? Thank you !!
