Unhappy i dont think i feel well

other than having beef two times today i dont know what the deal is. i feel nauseated. kind of like sour stomach but i dont have to just constant queasy-ness. do i just go to sleep? can i take tums or something? i would call the dr but he is away with his family for the weekend and he deserves to be left alone. for once. lol!

can we take over the counter stuff like pepto bismol? i dont have any peppermint or i would eaten it by now to try to make this go away. it tends to soothe.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Sorry you're not feeling well sweetie. Not sure what you can take, maybe some Pepto Bismo?? I don't do very well wth beef as a rule, just seems to sit there, so I don't try it very often. Sure hope you're not coming down with a bug. My poor 13 yr old grandson was sick for 3 days with something--diareaha,vomitting, and just plan felt lousey. I told my daughter don't come here--we don't want to catch it too. He's feeling better now. Hope you are feeling better soon sweetie!

I sure hope this is not what you have. Ulcers are not fun.

I have/had an ulcer about 6 weeks after surgery. The pain was excruciating. It scared my husband so bad that he refused to leave me. I did have to have a scope in order for them to be sure and need to have another one this month to be sure that it is gone or at least healing.

I sure hope you feel better. Sleeping definitely helped me along with being religious about taking my meds.

Take care of yourself.

Hopefully you'll start to feel better soon. Is this the doc you work for? Not really sure what seeing him would do, but it's a step in the right direction and he can decide if he's gonna send you for some more tests.
There was supposedly a stomach things around here this week. Thankfully neither me nor my son has gotten it yet (and don't get it), but hopefully it's somthing that simple and not really an ulcer. Keep us posted!

Your dr's making an educated guess that you may have developed an ulcer--because, well, that's the first thing that came to my mind when I read your first post. You sound as if you ar having acid reflux, which may be an indication of ulcer. I it is, it's best that your dr needs to see you. A scope would be to confirm the diagnosis, but taking Zantac beforehand, if it works, that again points to ulcer. If you do have ulcer, you'll probably prescribed something stronger.
Now, about blood in your stool, if the color is darker than chocolate, or b rown-black, that also indicated bleeding, so if the color has been darker than normal the, that merits a check, too, not just bright red blood.

(((((((HUGS))))) Hope you feel better soon.

Thats too bad Kenya, A few of us, myself included have had a couple of days of the queezys. Maybe its a bug, no more hot candies sweety. My surg. had said peptobismol was ok to take if the zantacs arent working give it a try. Hope you feel better soon. Kathy
