Abdominal Ultrasound

Question

Asked for Female, 24 Years

I've been asked to do abdominal ultrasound for acidity and gastritis issues. But do I have to go empty stomach because I can't be empty stomach, I feel very gassy and weak because of gastritis. Can it be done with little food? Or at least 3 hours after food?
