Avatar m tn Hi, After eating quite badly for the last 6 months or so (much more fatty foods and late night meals etc.) I have developed burning in my stomach and chest which didn't go away by itself. Now, the GP didn't do any GI tract or endoscopy checks or anything (i'm 25, otherwise very healthy) so he gave me 4 weeks of proton pump inhibitors.
Avatar m tn Do you have a family history of duodenal ulcer. Duodenal ulcer can also be caused by alcohol, nicotine,caffeine,tobacco, taking NSAID's aspirin, brufen e.t.c. The most common cause is the infection with H.Pylori. Does the pain cause you to wake up in the midnight. About fifty percent of patients with duodenal ulcers awake during the night with pain, usually between midnight and three a.m. Duodenal ulcers respond well to treatment, so relax and get yourself checked.

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 I'd go with the stomach ulcer or with gerd. I've had what I believe is gerd the past few days. Last night in particular it was extremely painful and I got limited sleep. I too have been getting pain when eating and drinking and activity has been bringing on the pain too. I guess that is more when I am bending over. If you're lying down to relax and experience pain then that would fit with acid reflux. I put the pain down to the acid.
Avatar m tn I did a juice based diet and then shortly after I would experience burning only in the stomach area nowhere else. It didn't travel up the Oesophagus at all. The treatment method was and is still Nexium 40. I take 1 Nexium 40 every 3 days and then obviously repeat this as the stomach acid returns. Now during these 4 years I have gone for the following tests to rule out anything sinister My tests are as follows; 2009 Endoscopy - Clear no abnormality found.
1103038 tn?1449650320 If on the right upper side it could be your gallbladder or dile duct blockage, or the liver, if on lower right , appedix, If the stomach itself perhaps an ulcer or tear in the stomach, and if on the left spleen, pancreas. It sounds like you need to go to the ER. Let me know hot it goes. Feel free to message me.
Avatar m tn It is possible you have gallstones or ulcer as your treatment suggests, but please see your doctor as this needs to be sorted out. Pain such as this is not normal. It could also be referred pain but needs to be checked by physical examination and possible ultrasound. Also are your stools normal and do you have any difficulty going to the toilet passing bowel motions? Also check to see if your stools are black and tarry or light and colourless as this info can significant provide clues.
Avatar m tn Stomach Ulcers and Weight Loss One of the symptoms of a stomach ulcer is a steady loss of weight despite a standard diet. If you have a stomach ulcer, your appetite is adversely affected and this in turn exacerbates the amount of weight lost. Since nausea and vomiting are other symptoms of stomach ulcers, they result in an additional loss of weight. The lining of the stomach is damaged and the scar tissue that's formed blocks the passageway to the stomach.
Avatar f tn Since your stomach acid pumps will probably be turned on, it is hard to determine how much acid is consumed in the vomit. When I had a perforated ulcer, I was constantly fed a bland diet. My ulcer healed and I have photographs of my stomach-ulcer scar to prove it. Thank goodness for technology, because in 1964 milk and cream were the diets prescribed for ulcer treatments. It was not realized then that calcium in dairy foods activate your stomach to produce more acid.
Avatar f tn My question is do you believe that this is indeed a stomach ulcer? If it is a stomach ulcer then how long would it take for a PPI such as Dexilant to help alleviate the symptoms? Thank you for your time and sorry for the long post.
Avatar m tn t have my husband change his diet. And he told my husband to take the pills on an empty stomach but he didn't so I don't know if that compromised it from working as well.
Avatar n tn What do you mean by gas (rumbling in your stomach, burping, or passing gas/farting)? This is often due to diet but it can also be due to swallowing air which can be done unconsciously if you are anxious.
Avatar f tn He complains of pain everytime he eats and upon waking up. We had a stomach x-ray to see if he was constipated. He was clear. They though he might have H.Pylori, clear. The are now testing his stools for parasites. His stools are a vibrant green color even if he hasn't had any veggies the night before. His Dr. has suggested we give him a table spoon of malox prior to eating anything. He will spend a good part of the day sitting on the toilet, but can't produce anything.
Avatar m tn Well two weeks ago I had really bad acid reflux for a few days and felt nauseated and couldn't eat much. My relative, a doctor at Kaiser, told me to take a 150 Zantac tablet after breakfast and 1 after dinner for an entire week. Each 12 hours apart. Since it wasn't an official visit he wasn't able to give me an official diagnosis. Well it seems like my problems have changed.
Avatar m tn Having hunger like pangs and some dull burn in my stomach right at bottom of my sternum. Stomach gets noisy at times either while eating or a few hours afterwards. Have gas off and on and flatulence. Have been taking Omeprazole OTC and seems to help some. Been like this for going on 6 weeks. No bloody stool or vomiting. I have bowel movement every morning with nothing out of the normal as far as stool changes. Pretty much the same every time in color and consistency.
Avatar m tn my ? is i am a us soldier who for the past 20 mnths has been dealin with stomach and digestive issue's.i got really sick in iraq and they told me that all my lympnodes ahd swelled on my intestines well as usual i got the hooah pill and was told to drive on.
1139187 tn?1355706647 t too fun for what I think you have...an ulcer..probably around your gallbladder region (the stomach is located on your upper left/center region but drains to the right..) On ulcers, it's weird..like if you eat a big meal you'll probably feel a little better because it'll lower your acid level in your stomach..but then your stomach will produce acid to break down the food and then you'll be in pain...usually it's a dull achy pain..comes and goes...
Avatar n tn 20 mins after eating as the food leaves your stomach the ulcer is then exposed to the only thing left in your stomach, which is acid. When you eat again the ulcer is then protected by the food until the food passes out of the stomach again.
Avatar f tn Not sure why GERD is being connected to heliobacter, that's connected to ulcers. We all have heliobacter pylori in our systems but when there's an overgrowth it has to be killed. Probiotics don't kill it, though they do prevent it from getting a foothold instead of passing through. GERD is a digestive disorder that can come from many sources -- not chewing your food well enough, stress, an imbalance in your digestive system between acid and alkaline.
12268405 tn?1427853361 t suspect UC or chrons, because I did have a barium swallow test performed and all that was found was a small ulcer in my stomach. That ulcer was probably a result of my anxiety disorder. I do experience periodical nausea and sometimes vomiting. I don't know what to think of this. I have also had a blood test done to test for Celiacs disease, and the test came back negative for Celiacs. Celiac does run in my family. Any ideas?
Avatar m tn If the pain is above your navel, that is where your stomach is, so check out the diet and possibility of ulcers...and no drinking alcohol until you find out....
Avatar f tn The upper GI showed a large stomach ulcer and she feels that this is the cause of my stomach pains and other problems, and wants to put me on medication. Anyway, my question is: Is ulcer a possible side effect of the nissen fundoplication procedure? According to the test results they are saying the ulcer spans from the fundus and down the whole side of the lesser curvature.
Avatar m tn m hungry. stomach is relatively flat in the morning and gradually bloats. Could this be an ulcer, gallstones etc?
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.
