Sorry to hear you still don't have any answers. But it is nice to know they have ruled out an ulcer.
Good luck with the next step!!!

@patm - A hernia is a break in the abdominal wall lining so that your intenstines pouch out. It wouldn't be attached to your ribs. I would go to a doctor about it.
@jellybelly - think a scope can see redness / irritation / punctures / infections / warts / GERD damage / size of opening between stomach & intestines.
It wouldn't necessarily show if you have a food allergy, and if they didn't go past the stomach, it wouldn't show Celiac disease (gluten problem). or Lactose intolerance.
A lot of people have Irritable Bowel Syndrome, could you have this in your remaining intestines?

Nobody has mentioned irritable bowel. It mostly just irritates me :)
