Why Is My Stomach Always Upset? What Patients Should Know About Functional Dyspepsia

Do you often experience stomach discomfort and don’t know why? In this episode, we learn about a condition called functional dyspepsia, which may be the reason for your tummy troubles. Dr. Scott Gabbard, a Gastroenterologist at the Cleveland Clinic and Chairman of the American College of Gastroenterology’s Patient Care Committee, explains functional dyspepsia, a term used for recurring upset stomach symptoms with no clear cause.
Dr. Gabbard helps us understand the symptoms, treatment options and ongoing management of this condition. Since patients often misinterpret their symptoms for other indigestion disorders such as GERD, Dr. Gabbard also offers tips for effectively communicating with healthcare providers about our symptoms so that we get an accurate diagnosis.
