Hi,
Your symptoms sound just like mine and I have been diagnosed with IBS.
I think your Dr is correct.
I was prescribed (Colofac) which helps and (Domperidone) which is good for moving your food along faster and helps with your symptoms, particularly after eating as that is when discomfort is the worse.
Its possible you could have H.Pylori as that can cause similar symptoms.
To diagnose H.Pylori you would need an Endoscopy/Biopsy.
You should see your Dr if there is no improvement. Eat small meals and nothing to eat three hours before bedtime. Solofelix.
