Avatar n tn Viral gastroenteritis can lead to nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. The exact location of pain and other details will help in determining the accurate cause .Take light meals. Avoid spicy fried foods. If the symptoms are severe consult a gastroenterologist. Best of luck and regards!
Avatar f tn In reviewing my medical records from my gastroenterologist it seems they keep bouncing between a diagnoses of "non ulcer dyspepsia" and "peptic ulcer disease". The non ulcer dyspepsia is a fancy term for ulcer like stomach pain without an ulcer and no clear cause. Then I occasionally do show up with peptic ulcers, which I thought were from accidentally taking a migraine medication that had aspirin in it...but I've never been checked for the pylori bacteria.
Avatar m tn While burning pain can indicate stomach problems (an ulcer or gastritis), the location of the pain leads one to have concern about your liver as the source of the pain. If the liver is not functioning normally you can have increased gas. If the pain is episodic and related to food consumption (especially fried or fatty foods) then gallstone disease could be a cause. On the other hand, a constant burning pain would also make us suspicious for liver inflammation, or hepatitis.
Avatar f tn Why do i have pain in my upper left stomach, nausea after i eat, loss of appetite, and everytime i drink water it makes it worse
Avatar f tn Hi Winters I am not a doctor but when I experienced symptoms similar to yours I went to my famly doctor and she said it was probably an ulcer or irritation of the lining of the stomach. She sent me to a specialist who performed an EGD - scope goes down the throat into the stomach and I was diagnosed with stomach ulcers. Once I started taking the meds for that, my pain and symptoms went away.
526146 tn?1287442248 the pain is central in the stomach and above the belly button. The meds Im on are actually for an ulcer or excess acid and do help when taken - its a horrid pain!
Avatar f tn For me there was a pain that when it hit me I just felt like I knew for sure I was in labor. It was a deep kind of pain I had a ton of back labor though and pains down my sciatica. I knew I was in labor when in had been resting and dozed off for a few minutes only to be women up by a pain and 2 minutes later the same thing happened. It kept happening every 2 minutes for me but they say anything that's 10 minutes or less apart ins considered contractions.
Avatar f tn Could I have an ulcer? I have stomach pain around my belly button and above - pain goes through to my back. Pain severe when I waken in the morning until I get up (strange) Pain is worse when I am lying down. When I eat, the pain goes away for a couple of hours, then comes back.
Avatar m tn I have GI appointment at the end of the month. Is it possible to have a stomach ulcer for 6 months?
Avatar f tn They also have me on 4 pills a day for the ulcer medicine and another pill to coat my stomach so my ulcer is probably already healed. I suffer from migraines as well and there will be times throughout the day my brain will feel bruised and like it's bleeding but only on the top. My question is should I go get the testing done or would it just be a waste?
203342 tn?1328737207 What are they symptoms of a stomach ulcer? I've had this gnawing feeling in my stomach lately when I shouldn't be hungry. I noticed it tonight after dinner. It almost feels like my stomach is eating itself! I know that's a strange way to put it. It's kind of hard to describe. I also feel a bit of possible heartburn off and on. At least that's what I think it is. I've been pretty busy so I don't know if I might have missed any symptoms before.
Avatar n tn My daughter is 12 years old and has a lot of pain an cramping in her stomach. This tends to happen late in the evening. This doesn't happen every night but maybe 3 times a week. She has already started her period, but is not having it right now. Her last period ended about a week and half ago. Could this be heartburn? Sometimes it hurts so bad she wants to throw up but can't.
Avatar n tn Thank you for your feed back, I read about ulcers and it seems like it could be, tho I couldnt find anything about the wave of pain. The area that aches matches that of an ulcer though. Again, thank you very much; I will see a doctor as soon as I can!
Avatar f tn Hello and welcome to the forum. I would ask your doctor for guidance. They recommended the proton pump inhibitor and prescribed it? I think if they prescribed it for a particular symptom and you no longer have it, I would consider holding off on taking the medication. Like all drugs, these too have risks as well as benefits. Things like a long term side effect on calcium metabolism that can lead to bone fracture or osteoporosis which is associated with PPI's.
Avatar m tn However as the days progressed, the pain got worse and worse. I took TCM medicines for stomach pain but it only alleviated it by a bit.
Avatar n tn Ibuprofen may cause strong gastritis, even ulcer. Any acid, which comes into contact with an ulcer, causes pain. Wine is basically an acid. To make an exact diagnosis (gastritis or ulcer...), gastroscopy would be needed - this was already done? Pepto-Bismol releaves your pain? Interesting. When you say pain in the stomach - you mean exactly stomach - or entire abdomen?
Avatar f tn might be ulcer your kiddney stone check with your doctor on those
Avatar n tn Does anybody else get an ulser like pain in the middle at the top of stomach? Am on faldaprevir, ribavirin, BI 207127. Pain only started after I started treatment 3 days ago.
Avatar m tn Hello, The pain and discomfort in the lower left part of the stomach could be due to peptic ulcer disease. Peptic ulcer pain is usually a burning pain. They commonly occur in the stomach and duodenum. Stomach ulcers cause pain on eating and duodenal ulcers cause pain on fasting (2-3 hrs after eating). Peptic ulcers are eroded areas in the lining of the digestive tract usually in the stomach and duodenum.
Avatar m tn In January of this year (2008) I was having heartburn so bad it made me sick with feeling of muscle cramps on the right side of my chest. My doctor prescribed a 2 week course of Nexium. The heartburn went away for a few days after the 2 weekes but returned. Maalox used to help but after a few days of constant heartburn the doc told me to buy Prilosec which worked well.
Avatar f tn probably should consult with a GI specialist for more testing but an upper endoscope would probably be a good idea followed by colonoscopy. Still sounds like ulcer though with the location of pain unless your passing a kidney stone and your IBS symptoms are going bezerk but that doesn't explain blood.
Avatar m tn I woke up later that night at about 2am with severe stomach pain. The pain has become mild andcomes and goes. Could I have an ulcer?
Avatar f tn My ENT doctor had me get a barium swallow (stomach through larynx or most of larynx) which looked normal, and will be doing a more thorough exam (down-through-the-nose tube light, in-office); my mouth looked normal enough. She says may be from GERD, but I only get acid reflux once or twice a year, though when I do it is up into the mouth, no heartburn.
Avatar m tn The most common symptom is pain in the upper abdomen.The types of peptic ulcers include gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer and esophageal ulcer. Endoscopy can aid accurate diagnosis.Acupuncture treatment is notably effective in treating peptic ulcer..
