Nausea and Symptoms of Ulcer not going away...what is this? Posted: 06-05-06 04:05am
im not really sure how to explain this,
but for the past 3months I have have
suffered severe daily nausea. It all
started when I picked up a sickness bug
from my work since then i'v felt terrible.
My gp originally gave me domperidome,
which made no difference at all. I then
had blood tests which came back normal, so
my doctor said it would fade out in a week
or two. Because I felt so sick in the
morning I would quite often not have
breakfast, so by lunch time I would feel
shaky, weak, dizzy and incredibly sick. I
then started fainting a lot, my gp then
decided I suffer from low blood sugar and
a stomach ulcer. I have started my new
diet of 6 small meals a day and taking
omazrepole for my stomach. This worked
really well for the first 2 weeks then my
nausea came back, I check my blood sugar
when I feel sick and its usually fine.
However now I get a sort of dull pain in
my upper abdomen just below my ribcage,
which sometimes gets really painful, (it
feels like its being crushed nad I get a
horrible acid taste in my mouth) I also
have pain in my lower abdomen (like
constant period pain) I have been to my gp
so many time now and i'm begining to get
the feeling that he thinks im making it up
but everyone says I look pale so I'm sure
I'm not imagining it.
Any advice would be super

You can request a Helicobacter pillory
serology and a gastroscopy in order to
help diagnose your condition. A
gastroscopy is the only reliable method
for detecting peptic ulcers.
