What Causes Pain In Upper Abdomen, Bloating And Constant Belching?
Question: I was hospitalized recently for blood clots in both lungs. Released yesterday. I forgot to ask them a question before I left. I have pain and a very uncomfortable feeling in my upper abdominal. I feel bloated and constantly belching. When I walk it feels worse.
Is this a result of the blood clots in lung or is there something else going on?

Brief Answer:
You are mostly having drug induced gastritis.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, in my opinion you are mostly having drug induced gastritis. It is less likely due to clot in the lung.
Your drugs like aspirin, xeralto, plavix etc can cause gastritis.
So better to start proton pump inhibitors on empty stomach daily.
Avoid stress and tension.
Avoid hot and spicy food.
Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
Go for walk after meals.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health.
Thanks.
