Hi All,
I am new to this forum and this is my first post. For the last month I have been having stomach pain which is mainly in my abdominal area (left side) but lately has started to shift to the right side. The pain can be described as persistent and as cramps. I suspect that this is due to my mistake of taking advil painkillers for about 2 weeks (on and off) for a tooth ache that I had before. Not only did I take the painkillers for about 2 weeks (on and off) but I took them with just water and not milk or meals. Definately my big mistake as I should have known better.
I also had a french kiss with a girl but I doubt this had anything to do with my stomach pain. I had an ultra sound a few days ago and will have to wait a few days for the results. My doctor right now has me on nexium for 2 weeks but I must admit it has not helped at all after taking it for 1 week. One of the side effects of nexium is abdominal pain but it does heal/aid against ulcers. So should I continue taking it for another week?
I have been drinking a lot of water, staying away from caffene and have put running on hold for another week. I tried running about a week ago and barely could even do 1 lap.
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
