A member asked:
Abdominal pain 1/5 after eating below the sternum. lasts for hours. better after milk. no constipation but go less often and its green, small amount.

GERD + IBS: The pain below the sternum suggests GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease).Acid stomach contents travel upwards into the esophagus, irritating the lining. Green stools may be IBS (irritable bowel) due to rapid movement through the intestine, not allowing time for bile to be digested. Often spicy, high fat, acidic foods trigger. Add fiber, ? probiotic. Try OTC antacids, proton pump inhibitors.
