Now: I've been passing green stools for almost two weeks to a month now.

Avatar f tn I went to the ER a week ago and had blood work done and there was no bacteria present and all the blood work was OK. I was told that it was probably Gastritis and possibly the start of an ulcer. I was put on Nexium. I took that for a couple of days and went and saw my GP. She put me on Tecta instead. I have been avoiding spicy foods, heavy foods, carbonated drinks, coffee, chocolate, high sugar foods, citrus foods, etc. as suggested.

I got see a phychiatrist and social worker,I take effexor xr,with clorazapane and amitrypiline.I do cognitive restructering and i meditate and try to eat well.I don't know if this could be i.b.s or psychosomatic symptom i just don't know what to do.

Avatar n tn I switched from effexor to wellbutrin. I had to be on both medications at the same time for a long time because of the effexor withdrawal... it was so hard to come off the effexor, I was at the lowest dose for a very long time, 25mg, because I couldn't get off of it the withdrawal symptoms were too bad for me.
Avatar f tn in the past 8 years i have gotten 1 ulcer on my vulva 4 times. in reading about crohns i found that some men and woman do report genital ulcers. Just wanted to know if this is true and has anyone ever had this symptom.
Avatar m tn I am getting desperate Would any of these tests pick up an ulcer if it were this? Could this be cancer? A missed blocked kidney stone? The Er Drs said follow up with my primary care but im afraid it may be too late by the time this is found !!!!
Avatar n tn stomach ulcers need to be treated by your gp with anti ulcer drugs, avoid aspirin and any other drugs that can irritate the ulcer, eg, anti inflamatories, ibuprphen etc. my ulcer took months to heal, avoiding certain irriitants did help, spicy food, alcohol, and acid foods such as citrus fruit. i found that sipping milk slowly eases sudden ulcer pain, however dairy products can cause acid build up in the long run, so do take prescribed medicines.
Avatar m tn ve seen except for maybe a scaled down case of syphilis? its hard to notice unless u pull the skin apart. lately its starting to resemble an ulcer. I went to planned parenthood last week and was examined. idk if the doc overlooked it(she did not seem too concerened). she said there was nothing abnormal about my area and tested me only for gonorrhea and chlamydia. both came back negative. now that its becoming more noticeable and tingling im becoming nervous.
Avatar n tn my luck right. she said she had a mouth ulcer at the time i said you know what F it and i just kissed her deep french kissing was i at risk for hiv. i did nothing else but kiss her but im worried that the ulcer could of gave me a risk.
539694 tn?1434565947 Okay i have a massive white ulcer in my mouth on the gum behind my bottom row of teeth almost virtically not quite in bottom of the mouth. Treatment pain is NOT a issue for me, when ulcers come i regularly press salt into them, bathe them with vinigar or alcohol these are all extremely painful but dont actually always numb it. Is there anything else i can do excluding going to get medicine?
Avatar m tn Welcome to the gastroenterology community! If you truly took 10,000 mg of ibuprofen, you need to go to the ER ASAP. This is about 9 times the maximum dose you should take without the supervision of a doctor and about 3 times the maximum dose you should take even with the supervision of a doctor.
Avatar f tn Hi I've had an ulcer for around 8weeks now I've been to dentists around 6 different occasions I've been given antibiotcs mouth washes but its still there!dentist said its deffo not cancer but a traumatic ulcer but I'm starting to doubt this as its not shifting!
1752640 tn?1352767394 Gastritis is a more likely scenario. It might not be a bad idea to check with your doc and possibly ask for some testing. You may want to consider asking him to check for the presence of H. pylori, the bacteria that is implicated in causing stomach issues and gastritis.
Avatar n tn Effexor is a very effective antidepressant. Many find SNRI's such as Effexor to be more effective than SSRI's such as Citalopram. Another alternative that I have found even more effective is Pristiq. It is made by the same company that makes Effexor and is almost identical in every way. I found relief with Effexor for several years, but now that I am taking Pristiq I have found it to be even more effective than Effexor.
Avatar f tn in the case of Effexor (Venlafaxine) it is ok to start most SSRI meds (Including Paxil) without first tapering down on the Effexor. In fact many people take Effexor along with an SSRI med as part of their treatment. Effexor is different enough from Paxil that the odds of an adverse interaction is very uncommon. Now you would not be able to do the same with another SSRI like Zoloft, Lexapro, Prozac, ect.
Avatar m tn I started taking 150mg of effexor last week, but now i'm feeling bad. Do I need a larger dose or smaller dose? Getting very frustrated. Have also just went from taking cymbalta and abilify to the effexor and abilify, but went off the abilify because of the weight gain. Dr wanted me to try wellbutrin and go off the effexor, but don't think it was working. Now I'm really confused on what works. For a couple days of being off the wellbutrin and on 150 of effexor i fealt great.

Avatar m tn When I went from Celexa to Effexor gained 30 pounds. I have finally got off of Effexor, which is very hard to get off. I'm now on Zoloft and the weight is slowly coming off.
Avatar n tn What is the difference between Effexor and Effexor XR? Are the dosages usually the same for both meds?
