What diagnostic tests and investigations are recommended to evaluate a patient experiencing a six-month history of recurrent, severe postprandial left-sided abdominal pain and nausea, specifically to rule out acute pancreatitis or peptic ulcer disease?

Asked by Male, 29 · 18 days ago

To investigate your left-sided pain and nausea, doctors typically recommend a few routine tests. To check for peptic ulcer disease, an upper endoscopy is the most effective tool, often combined with a simple breath or stool test for H. pylori bacteria. To evaluate your pancreas, blood tests checking lipase and amylase levels, along with an abdominal ultrasound or a CT scan, are very helpful. These tests are standard, safe, and will help your doctor create a reassuring plan to get you feeling better.
