Help! Stomach, back pain and severe reflux

Hi Drs, I have been suffering with severe stomach pain, upper under left rib cage and thru to back. The pain runs down my left side and I have severe reflux. Everything I eat gives me sever pain in my throat. I have had blood work, 2 ultrasounds and a CT Scan and all normal. This pain is starting to give me anxiety and not wanting to leave the house. I am nauseous most of the time. I have lost about 13 lbs in 3 wks, which is not good as I was already thin. I only sleep a straight 4 hours and then am wide awake. I lay in bed for a few more hours but not really sleeping. I am in the United States and can only get certain hemopathic items. Most have to be ordered on line. Please let me know what other info you need. All help is greatly appreciated.

The lower left side of ab started a little after hysterectomy surgery 5 years ago. Pain down left side start dull around February and continued to get worse.

22. How did that feel like? Was upset when dad passed away of course. I hate moving, the stress just really gets to me. I can't deal with the renovations either as I don't like clutter and disorder and everything is that way. I also eat a specific diet and when I have to eat out for over a month there is not alot to choose from. I am gluten and dairy free.

Not sure what this means

25. Current and previous remedies/medicines you are taking or took in the past?
I have taken zantac or prilosec for heartburn. I just found some Mag Phos 6c and took it last night. It helped a little with the pain in side, but also gave me a headache. I have also taken a klonopin for the anxiety. I have a massage once a month, chiropractor every week and acupuncture every other week. He has me taking chinese herb Shen Ling Bai Zhu Wan.

26. Family Background -
Father - Died from pancreatic c, had diabetes and hepetitis
Mother - Diabetic, COPD (smokes like a chimney) eats horribly and has multiple body pain issues.

28. Nature of work, what do you do for living? Accountant

29. Desires, likes and dislikes for food
Like smoothies and juicing, chicken and fish. Like most things except not a big fan of red meat. Due to my family history I try to eat well, no fast food, no gluten or dairy. I don't fry anything, only saute with olive oil.

30. Name of foods which increase your problem - just about everything right now. I can eat baked/boiled potatoes and fish seems to do ok. I eat Gluten free pancakes with manuka honey and they do ok most of the time. Eggs sometimes are good sometimes not. Can't do sauteed (in olive oil) vege's. Have to lightly steam them. Have not been drinking/eating anything cold. Only warm or room temp.

31. Mind-behavior, anger, irritability, hurry, impatient…and so on.. How are you different from other persons, public speaking or not , you can describe all of the details about your behavior, love and affections.
I have not been very happy the last few months. I don't really like my job, I don't like where I live. I'm a little irritable. I'm the type of person that holds people accountable. I feel I am also everyone's go to person. Very strong willed, dependable/reliable. I usually keep going no matter what. I don't think I have even stopped to grieve the death of my father. Before this started I wanted to take a month off and go somewhere, alone, just to really find out who I am. I'm not afraid to do public speaking. I have trouble with emotions. I have never been one to really cry. Maybe once a year I get all bottled up, I can go in a room have a good cry and be fine for the next year. If something does come up that would make me cry I will hold it in, like I'm weak if I let it out. I have been in a long term relationship which is not ideal. He is a very hard working, loyal, passive man. We have been together 23 years and are not married. Yes, this does bother me. I have really been having a problem with this as I am religious and feel I am sinning. He does not understand this. We think totally different and our conversations usually get me frustrated as I feel I have to explain everything, that he just doesn't get it.

32. Aggravation (increases-time, season,)& Amelioration (Decreases) I don't like winters. I tend to get a little depressed being inside all the time. Love summer and fall.

33. Attached here your photographs of the affected area. (if required/optional)

34. Location of the disease

35. Side of the problem (Right or Left), (Upper or Lower part of body)
Mostly left side, neck, shoulder, stomach, side,lower ab.

36. Color of the secretions/discharges e.g urine, stool, sputum, Saliva etc.
Urine - Yellow first thing in morning and then clear rest of day. sometimes a little cloudy looking, but clear.
Stool - Various, I had one white stool back in April, since it goes from green, light brown, yellow/green
Saliva - clear

For Females Only
37. When is the period during the month approx date? Any monthly cycle issues? Regular, early, late, before problems, after problems, pain, any other discharges?
I no longer have period. Had partial hysterectomy in August 2007, they left both ovaries. They cut me from side to side. Since then I have had the lower ab pain and always felt there was a problem with badder. Had pain with urination for about a year after. Then summer of 2011 started having dreams of having to use bathroom and would actually urinate a little and would wake up to run to bathroom. Had ultrasound and a large tumor was discovered in middle of ab, below navel. It was removed laproscopically along with my left ovary. I still have the pain in same area and I had another one of those dreams 2 nights ago. Have had urine tests and they looked there as well when ctscan was done.

38. Are you pregnant? If yes, please give pregnancy start date? Any current issues? No

I forgot to add, trouble sleeping. Take melatonin to fall asleep, don't sleep sound and wake every night/morning 3-4 am (sometimes a little later). If I can, I will fall back to sleep around 5 and sleep a few more hours (when I don't have to work).
