I've been feeling a hard lump in my upper stomach and having trouble passing stool, only going a little at a time. My weight has gone up, my stomach feels bloated, and my face looks puffy. What could be causing this? I had surgery to remove my womb two years ago could that be related to these stomach issues?

I'm really worried because my histopathological report for a tuberculosis ultrasound-guided biopsy came back negative, but my CT scan shows I have enlarged lymph nodes and tuberculosis. I've been on anti-tuberculosis treatment for over three months, but I'm not seeing any improvement. My abdominal pain is getting worse, especially in the upper abdomen. Could it be something else? The biopsy was negative for cancer, and Buscopan injections don't relieve the pain at all. Only Tramadol helps. What could be causing such severe pain, and are there any tests that could help figure this out? Someone mentioned a capsule endoscopy - could that be useful?
