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?
Avatar f tn Ive been to different doctors and all theyve given me is pills, pills, and more pills! I used to have a peptic ulcer so they all assume its related.. maybe it is, maybe it isnt but the pills theyve given me I dont feel have worked so.. I took to the herbal route and started taking a capsule of ceyenne pepper a day which seems to have helped immensely, Im even considering drinking aloe vera juice. Anyways! The pain in my stomach feels like a gnawing, nauseating pain..
Avatar f tn I think of two things one is an infection if you had a productive cough or sore throat. THe other is perhaps it is bile from the gallbladder or a stomach ulcer something along those lines might fit since you have a lack of appetite as well and constipation. You may be backed up due to the constipation. I would see a GI doctor and have them give you an exam as well as perhaps some scans.
Avatar n tn The doctor told me I had to quit smoking because nicotine, a drug, activates the acid pumps in my stomach lining and would irritate my ulcer. It appears that maybe the lack of nicotine has caused some change in your stomach. Ten years ago, I developed a second ulcer, and I have taken one OTC Prilosec a day for 10 years with no problem. Why not try an experiment and take one Prilosec or Prevacid a day for 4 days to learn whether your heartburn has stopped?

Avatar f tn His GP is not qualified to handle this situation, only a Gastroenterologist can help him. An ulcer is like a crater and if left untreated it will eat right thru the stomach creating a fatal situation. The ulcer itself needs to be addressed not the symptoms. Your husband should have taken the clinic's advice. This is nothing to fool around with. Take care...
Avatar m tn I have GI appointment at the end of the month. Is it possible to have a stomach ulcer for 6 months?
1448936 tn?1363206346 ve been dealing with a horrible burning sensation in my stomach for a few weeks now. Sometimes I get really nauseous from it. I went to the dr and they gave me pills to treat an ulcer...they havent been giving me much relief. I've tried tums, maalox, pepto bismol as well. Nothing seems to help. Any idea what could possibly going on? The drs did xrays and checked for blood in my stool and everything has been negative.
Avatar f tn But I also just found out yesterday that I have a stomach ulcer so it hurts when I eat but then being pregnant makes me want to eat every couple hours. They gave me some medicine to take but it's 8 pills a day for 15 days and I don't want to give my baby all that so I plan on waitin it out until the baby gets here to take them. Does anyone else feel hungry all day or could it just be a side effect if the ulcer? This is my first pregnancy and I am 20 weeks tmrw.
Avatar f tn m 18 years old living in New Zealand and for the past month or so I have been suffering extremely painful burning sensations in my upper stomach, which was named Gastrisis when i went to the doctor a few days ago! Caused I think by taking too many nurofen due to a toothache! However - nothing seems to relieve me of my pain, even slightly! Tried everything, a diet of low fat milk and bananas, antacids, prescribed pills. Nothing seems to be working!
Avatar n tn ve gone to one doctor in particular who made me do a Bari-meal exam to find out if i have ulcer. the results indicated nothing of such, just that i have an inflamed stomach. But i think it is more than that. He gave me zantac and some thing else but those pills just did not help. On follow up visits, if memory serves me right he prescribed the same tablets-still no change in my condition.
Avatar m tn I have to assume that because your posting in the addiction abuse forum instead of the stomach problem forum that your problems may be from the pills you are taking. The lack of information you give makes it impossible to suggest advice. Would you like togive us more to work with please? Then we will hopefully be able to help.
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 f tn My name is Sam and I'm a 15 year old female. Recently I've been worried about possibly having a peptic/stomach ulcer. I'm not freaking out over it, but I would like to see my doctor. I've been having pain in my upper middle abdomen. It's either sharp, achy, or burning. Sometimes it feels like I'm hungry. Anyways, I keep telling my mom about the symptoms, and she won't let me schedule a doctor's appointment! Why?
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 n tn you may have a bleeding ulcer in the stomach... the blood is black by the time you pass it.
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 n tn The results of your procedure will allow the doctor to diagnose your stomach condition. Try one or two pills before bedtime to determine why you have early-morning pain when you have not eaten. Pleasures like milk, ice cream, yogurt, all contain Calcium, and cause your stomach to secrete stomach acid. If you do try these treats, stop it for a night or two and decide whether the dairy products turn-on your stomach- acid pumps.
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 n tn If not, the pills can settle on a spot in your stomach lining and burn a sore into the lining. Ulcers have the same symptoms, but is more severe that has caused an ulceration on the stomach lining. Hiatal hernia produces burning pain and pressure right under your rib case. Over-the-counter medicines like Prilosec, Prevacid, Zantac and others can temporarily stop the burning. One tablet or capsule lasts 24 hours.
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.
