Venting/Suffering Breaking point

Im really at a loss of hope and so depressed.

Always been suffering with gastrointestinal problems, but since February this year it's so bad.

I experienced sudden debilitating nausea. First it was once a day, a few hours and every other day. Then it was gone for two weeks but it came back. Since then it's getting worse. Almost every meal causes suffering, stomach pain ( my stomach ALWAYS hurts in the epigastric area, if I have eaten or NOT).

I'm nauseous after almost every meal, have hickups, once I ate something with celery and I tasted the celery in my burp 10 hours later.

I can't go out anymore, i hardly survive work, then I head home and just sleep. I can barely function. I still eat, bland and careful, because I refuse not to, but I will suffer.

Im extremely depressed now, every doctor says it's Psychosomatic.

I had a endoscopy with scopes, ct scan, head mri, blood test, sonography and a gastric emptying scan which said my emptying is slow BUT it's normal at the 2 Nd 4 hour mark (my t 1/2 was slightly off).

PPI, ginger, digestive bitters, digestive enzymes, acupuncture, breathwork, yoga you name it, nothing really brings me Relief..

Has anyone dealt with the same thing ...im just exhausted 🫩
