I went in suspecting an ulcer or hiatal hernia but they told me I was completely healthy. But now my breastbone is very sore when I touch it. Is this a normal symptom of endoscopies?

For about a month now I’ve been having stomach pain from my belly button all the way up to my chest. This pain started after taking a high dose of ibuprofen.I went to the doctor and she prescribed me a higher dose of omeprazole, which I’ve been taking and hasn’t been helping. She told me if by the time I’m done with those pills and I’m not better that I should see a gastroenterologist. She also wants me to get an ultrasound for my gallbladder. Here’s where the problem is. I already booked a gastro appointment for this coming Tuesday. Will the gastro be able to do any tests to look at my gallbladder? Could I just skip the ultrasound? I wouldn’t be able to get an ultrasound before my gastro appointment to rule out any gallbladder problems. My other issue with the ultrasound is that the only place I can go to that covers my insurance is terrible. The reviews say to not go there and the wait times are hours even if you have an appointment. What should I do in this situation?

I’ve been running on the treadmill for about a year. I go about 4 days a week. I recently took a break (maybe about 20 days) because I might have a stomach ulcer and it was painful. The ulcer symptoms have subsided so I started to run again. Every time I run I get this bad constant cramping feeling that’s pretty painful, but it stops as soon as I stop running and when I walk. I never ever got cramps, and if I did they would be much lower. This pain is on either side of my belly button and sort of by my ribs. What could this be? 

I tried something that was more of a head high last time I smoked (the only time), and I hated how it made me feel, like I didn’t know if I was actually there or not. I want to try 100% Indica because I know it’s a body high, not a head high. Will I have a better experience with edibles or smoking? I want it to be a very slight high. I don’t want it to be really overpowering. 

If I take 4 weeks of 20mg omeprazole every day for two weeks...is that safe and effective for a stomach ulcer?

My boyfriend has 2 glasses of whiskey every night (about 2 shots worth). He doesn’t get drunk or tipsy but maybe a little buzzed. There are some days that he doesn’t drink at all though. But that is uncommon. Would he be considered an alcoholic because he drinks pretty much every night? 

It’s located in Arizona. There’s a lot of apartment complexes with “San” before the name of the apartment, and there’s a town called San Tan. What does San mean? I’m assuming it’s Spanish. 

I went to the dr and they told me to take 2 week omeprazole pack and famotadine. I’m about to finish the 2 week omeprazole but my ulcer hasn’t gone away completely. Can I start another 2 week omeprazole pack until my ulcer completely goes away?

Does caffeine irritate a stomach ulcer?

I’ve had a stomach ulcer for about a week. I just started taking Omeprazole and Pepcid to help get rid of it. The worst part is I have this constant painful sour stomach feeling. It feels like I’m really anxious but it’s painful. And every time there’s a jump scare or if my stomach drops, it’s really painful. I’ve been drinking chamomile tea because I’ve heard that helps. Is there any other ways to help with this pain? 

I have a stomach ulcer because I was taking 800mg ibuprofen 3 times a day for two weeks. I bought 14 day Omeprazole pills. Will only this treat it? Or should I take Pepcid which has Famotidine? 

A few days ago I noticed that there’s a cluster of lymph nodes towards the bottom on each side of my neck that are swollen and hard. They’re bigger on the left than the right. Not too big but I can move at least two of them around with the tip of my finger. They don’t hurt. I don’t have any other symptoms and I’m not sick. Should I wait a few weeks to see if they stay or go away to see a doctor? When I was little I had a very oversized and swollen lymph node that they did a biopsy of but it was benign. And every time I get sick I always have swollen lymph nodes near the top of my neck, never the bottom. 

I had fillings done, each side a month apart. Ever since then I’ve been having migraines. Some days it’s excruciating and other days it’s mild. But it’s ever single day. I went to the doctor and they gave me muscle relaxers (for tmj)  and ibuprofen. They really aren’t seeming to do much. I’ve been back to the dentist 2 separate times to have them fix my bite. But I’m still having headaches! Should I keep going back to the dentist to have them fix my bite? It’s so hard to tell how my bite is supposed to be, and every time I leave the dentist not knowing if my bite feels normal or not

Any time my boyfriend thinks that a girl is attractive, I instantly know. It’s fine that he thinks other girls are attractive, but when it’s right in front of me I think it’s rude and makes me feel invalid. For example, every time we go through a drive through he is always nervous and talks in this nervous high pitched voice. The other day they were taking orders outside the drive through. When the girl took our order outside the car, I instantly knew he thought she was attractive because he forced this deep manly voice and tried to sound good for her. He never ever talks like that. When I confronted him he said “I didn’t know I was doing it, I wasn’t doing it on purpose.” Another thing that he does that bothers me is if we have the tv on and hes on his phone, every time a girl who sounds attractive starts talking he immediately looks up at the tv to see what she looks like. It bothers me because it happens so often, and it’s right in front of me! It makes me feel like crap. This just happened, and when i was annoyed with him he said “I didn’t do anything wrong.” I don’t know what to do in this situation

For about a little more than a week I’ve been having a constant headache. It’s mostly just on my right side, but sometimes it’s on both sides and near my temples. It’s been mostly in one spot on the right side, and sometimes it’s stabbing pains. I’ve also had stabbing pains on the top of my head and in the back. Right now I’m just having pain behind my eyes and near my temples. My right eye also has been burning. The only explanation I can think of is I just had fillings done and my bite isn’t completely right. If I went to urgent care, what would they do for me? Do you think I’d need an MRI? I also never ever have headaches, and this has been constant for more than a week. It’s also gets worse at night and is effecting my sleep 

For example, I just had a really painful lung cramp. When it happened, a bright light flashed for a second. Why did this happen? This has happened other times too

I’ve been having gums but it’s just above one tooth, and the rest are fine. I just went to the dentist and they didn’t say anything about it (I didn’t bring it up). What could be the cause of this? 

I went on my bf’s old phone to try and find something. I went to his google search history, and I could see his history from today! They’re both connected through google, is that why I could see the current history? Also, I don’t really want him finding out I was looking at his phone (it’s for Christmas) would he get a notification that someone was on the other phone? 

Our 4 year anniversary is coming up in two days. I haven’t really been thinking about it, and i just remembered it today. We never really had a set anniversary date, so maybe 2 years ago we set it to Dec 16, the day that we met. I feel like it’s not the easiest to remember just because we made it up. I’m going to get him a gift and a card. Should I remind him that it’s coming up, or see if he remembers? I would feel bad if he didn’t think about it and I was the only one that gave him a gift. But I do also want to see if he’d remember. What should I do?
