Help W. Knowing What's Wrong With Me?
Posted: 06-03-05 21:41pm

I really need some advice or help because I really don't know what to do...I'm scared and I think I may have something like a stomach ulcer and I have 4 out of 8 symptoms, I don't want to go to a doctor but I just want it to leave...I haven't been eating for the past 2 months just little snacks not food and so now someone made me realize the danger of it. I'm 14 and would like to know if there are any suggestions? I'd really appreciate it if someone would reply please? Thank you...I posted one just before this but i'd really appreciate it if someone coudl reply...I'm under a lot of stress too and I don't know what to do...

Not eating can reuslt in a n ulcer and if you have one, it will only make it worse. I wonder why you dont want to go to a Dr. Simple medication can get rid of your ulcer and you will feel a whole lot better.
Also stress can irritate an ulcer as well. A Dr. Can give you meds for the ulcer and help you eat healthier and manage stress in your life to keep the ulcer from coming back.

On the other hand, is there a reason why you have not been eating well? Have you been sick with something else? Effort to lose weight maybe? Like I said, this may also cause an ulcer.

Please see a dr, or at least write back on why you dont want to see a Dr. And someone can give you other suggestions maybe. Right now probably everyone will tell you to get Dr. Help.

Take care and hope you feel better.

I Am Wondering

If you have the symptoms you mentioned and you are 14 you should be discussing with your parents as well as seeing a doctor,.

Worrying about what you many have will only increase your problems until you seek professional advice.

Okay, well I can't really tell my family at this point...It's complicated...But now I have started to eat properly nd more healthy there was a number of reasons why I stopped eating before, but do you think that if I continue to eat properly it will get better...? My stomach still hurts after I eat nd sometimes, but I don't think as much as before do you think it's going away?

If you say you feel better eating a more healthy diet, keep it up but since you still have some stomach pains then doctor is your only option.

If you for some reason cant discuss with a parent, maybe a grandparent.

Sounds like the best approach then. If she advises to see doctor then I would follow her advice.
