Achey, sore pain near duodenum, every day, now. h pylori negative. dexilant (dexlansoprazole) gives relief. omeprazole, not so much. what's this condition, procedure?

Gi: Sounds like an ulcer. Have you been scoped? If not i recommend getting an endoscopy to see what is going on. Consult a GI doctor. Another possibility would be gallbladder problem an ultrasound of this area may help.
