Maybe Acid Reflux? Posted: 01-07-05 22:54pm
Hi, I just logged onto this site because I
am also experiencing stomache pains. I'm
a 40 year old woman too. It started about
6 days ago when I woke up at night with a
burning feeling in my chest. I also
thought it was heartburn but my doctor
says it's acid reflux. The pain seems to
get milder when I stand up and walk
around. I was given medication for acid
reflux and it seemed to work for a few
days and then I got the burning feeling in
my chest area and my throat again. Also
my stomache has started burning too. I
spoke with another doctor to tell him the
medication doesn't seem to be working that
well so he is perscribing something else
for me. He also said that it is just
masking the root of the problem. I asked
him what other things may be causing this
burning feeling and he said it could be
anything from gastritis, gall stones,
hernia, a bacteria, or ulcer. I'm a
little scared because i've never really
experienced any problems before and this
doesn't seem to want to go away. Hope you
were able to find out more about your
condition.

Are you nervous, stressed, anxious, you
might think of seeking a second opinion or
at least get your Dr. To run some
tests.
Good luck!
Sincerely,
sandy

If You Take Daily Asperin...... Posted: 01-15-05 11:02am
I finally found out the reason for the
pain under my left rib cage. I've been
taking daily dosage asperin for 6 years
since my heart attack. It seens the
asperin burns a hole in your stomach
lining exposing the viens which eventually
cause them to rupture. My father has had
it happen to him twice where he needed
blood transfusions. I've stopped taking
daily asperin and the symtoms have gone
completly. Consult your doctor for an
asperin replacement.
